Alas, the English Premier League is back. The narratives have stormed the internet for Manchester City’s game against Wolves. The two teams will meet at the Molineux Stadium in Wolverhampton. In the meantime, Manchester City hopes to reclaim their top spot with Liverpool leading the pack. The Merseyside club fetched 18 points with the Citizens right behind their tails with 17. Arsenal too has 17 points and the title race is heating up.

Significantly, Norwegian striker Erling Haaland would be keen to add to his already impressive 10 goals. Although Manchester City has not been at its best, the team won 3 games out of their last 5, tying two games. They need to return to their form, but certain injuries have left the team to bare bones. They still managed to grab a victory against Fulham with two goals from Mateo Kovacic, giving them a 3-2 victory.

As for Wolves, they are 20th on the table with just 1 point. At this rate, they run the risk of getting relegated by March. Their performances so far have been shoddy, to say the least. Apart from conceding 21 goals, City looks to run riot in Molineux and Haaland surely could score a hat trick. They had a tough outing last time against Brentford as they lost the match 5-3. Listen to it FPL fans, triple captain could be a great option. Hence, let’s look at the team news for both the teams and their head-to-head records.

Wolves vs Manchester City: Team news and injuries

Wolves:

The injury troubles for Wolves could contribute to their wretched start in the league. They miss Hwang Hee-chan after receiving an ankle injury during an international game. He will be sidelined for some time. Likewise, Yerson Mosquera will be out for the rest of the season with a knee injury. It comes as a significant blow for the Wolves, as he was one of the key players at the back. Looks like Craig Dawson and Toti would marshall the defense for Gary O’Neil.

Manchester City:

Similar to Wolves, Manchester City has injury troubles of their own. Rodri is out of the season with an ACL injury, so Kovacic stepped in with Gundogan, and probably Foden in the midfield. Kevin De Bruyne hobbled off against Inter Milan 32 days back and could be in contention to play this weekend. Likewise, Nathan Ake could return to the squad after missing some games because of a knock during an international game. They have players who could make a difference and we could see them coming out, all guns blazing.

Predicted team-lineups

Wolves: [4-4-2]: Johnstone; Semedo, Toti, Dawson, Aït-Nouri; André, João Gomes, Lemina, Bellegarde; Strand Larsen; Cunha.

Manchester City [4-1-4-1]: Ederson; Walker, Dias, Akanji, Gvardiol; B. Silva, Gundogan, Foden, Doku; Haaland

Head-to-Head stats:

Total Matches: 130

Manchester City: 55

Wolves: 50

Games Drawn: 25

We think it will be a walk in the park for Manchester City. Wolves have injury troubles all over the pitch and could see them on the end of a huge scoreline. Erling Haaland’s form remains critical for the Citizens with Manchester City, hoping to get a sensational victory at the Molineux Stadium.

Predicted Scoreline: Wolverhampton Wanderers 0-4 Manchester City
