Manchester City vs Wolves Prediction & Tips
Manchester City’s season is in danger of falling apart, as Pep Guardiola acknowledged with concern that ‘everything is going wrong’ for his team after Tuesday’s surprising 3-1 defeat to Bodø/Glimt in the UEFA Champions League. That setback came after a painful 2-0 defeat to Manchester United last week, which extended their winless run in the Premier League to four games (three draws, one defeat), leaving Guardiola’s side seven points behind leaders Arsenal. However, City are confident they can at least keep pace this weekend, as they are unbeaten in their last 30 league games against teams starting the day in last place (24 wins, 6 draws) and have won the last nine of those games at home with an overall record of 36-0.
Wolverhampton are no longer at risk of recording the worst points tally in Premier League history, as they are only three points behind Derby’s 11 points in the 2007-08 season, thanks to a clear improvement in recent weeks. Rob Edwards’ side are unbeaten in five games in all competitions (two wins, three draws), four of them in the Premier League (one win, three draws) following last week’s 0-0 draw with Newcastle. The Old Gold have quadrupled their league points tally during that run and have come from behind to salvage 1-1 draws in their last two away games, one of which was at Old Trafford against Manchester United.
