Marco Silva's team sits three points behind eighth-placed Brentford – who also have a superior goal difference – in 12th, with Sunderland, Chelsea and Everton also between it and the Bees ahead of the final matchday.

Mateus Mane stung the palms of Bernd Leno before sending a powerful effort into the top-left corner from the edge of the box in the 25th minute.

However, after a pitchside VAR review by referee Thomas Kirk, the Wolves youngster was deemed to have committed a reckless foul on Timothy Castagne in the box and Antonee Robinson converted the resulting penalty in first-half stoppage time. 

Fulham was unable to build on that goal, though, with Wolves having the better of the chances in the second half.

Yerson Mosquera headed wide when unmarked at a corner, before Adam Armstrong dinked an effort against the outside of the post in the 68th minute.

The introduction of Harry Wilson gave Fulham a burst of energy, but they never looked like getting the better of Jose Sa for a second time.

Fulham take on Newcastle United at Craven Cottage on the final day, while Wolves will look to avoid finishing bottom by winning at Burnley.
