Wolves vs Man City Tips

Tip 1

Although we anticipate Man City claiming all three points without so much as a scare at Molineux, that doesn’t mean the home side aren’t capable of peppering Ederson’s goal at points in the game.

Matheus Cunha is the likeliest to have a say in disturbing the Man City defence given only Erling Haaland has outperformed the 21 shots or eight efforts on target he’s registered in seven PL matches.

Wolves’ 1-1 draw away at Nottingham Forest was the only occasion where he’s failed to meet this line, doing so in each of his last four outings and completing this particular mission against Arsenal, Chelsea, Newcastle, Villa and Liverpool.

Tip 2

City have only managed to shut out Slovan Bratislava in their last five matches, indicating their defence isn’t quite up to its usual standards right now.

Cunha has hit this mark twice from six starts so far, with both of these matches coming at Molineux versus high-level opposition in Chelsea and Newcastle.

On purely value alone this bet is worth chancing as the probability lies closer to just above the 2/1 mark than the 11/2 on show.

Wolves Form, Team News & Predicted Line-Up

A high-scoring defeat to Brentford last time out has unaltered Wolves’ position at the foot of the Premier League table as Gary O’Neill’s side are still without a win from seven games.

There are no fresh injury concerns for the hosts, who still remain without long-term absentees Sasa Kalajdzic, Enso Medina and Boubacar Traore.

Wolves Predicted XI: Johnstone; Semedo, Dawson, Gomes, Ait-Nouri; Andre, Forbs, Lemina, Gomes, Cunha; Strand Larsen.

Man City Form, Team News & Predicted Line-Up

Mateo Kovacic’s brace helped Man City edge out a five-goal thriller with Fulham at the Etihad just before the international break, maintaining the defending champions’ pressure on league leaders Liverpool.

Rodri is out for the season with an ACL injury, while Oscar Bobb remains sidelined long-term. Pep Guardiola does, however, expect to welcome back both Nathan Ake and Kevin De Bruyne.

Man City Predicted XI: Ederson; Lewis, Akanji, Dias, Gvardiol; Kovacic, Silva, Foden, Gundogan, Grealish; Haaland.
