Manchester United are still missing several players through injury and international duty, including skipper Fernandes, while Mason Mount is a major doubt after being withdrawn at half-time on Friday.
Amorim’s options are limited, as Kobbie Mainoo (calf), Matthijs de Ligt (back) and Harry Maguire (thigh) are sidelined; Bryan Mbeumo, Amad Diallo and Noussair Mazraoui are all at the Africa Cup of Nations.
It remains to be seen whether the hosts will revert to their favoured 3-4-2-1 formation, as Dorgu excelled in the right-wing role he often fulfilled while with Lecce.
The Danish winger has played a part in two goals in his last two games, after posting just one goal involvement across his first 36, so he should feature in the supporting cast for lone striker Benjamin Sesko, along with ex-Wolves man Matheus Cunha.
Meanwhile, Wolves are without centre-backs Toti Gomes (hamstring) and Emmanuel Agbadou (AFCON), but wing-back Hugo Bueno returned to action at Anfield.
Rodrigo Gomes (groin), Jean-Ricner Bellegarde (hamstring), Marshall Munetsi (calf), Daniel Bentley (ankle) and Tawanda Chirewa (AFCON) are also unavailable.
With Jorgen Strand Larsen failing to replicate his fine form of last season, Tolu Arokodare could continue to partner 18-year-old Mateus Mane up front.
