Wolverhampton Wanderers host Manchester City at the Molineux in a match from the 8th round of the Premier League. It’d be a good idea to stay with us and our free soccer predictions daily. Here we go!
Let’s start with Wolves here. The hosts are currently the weakest team in the league as they are at the bottom of the table with just one point won. Maybe it’s a matter of time before the manager Gary O’Neil gets sacked now. This could be one of his last chances to revive the team, but it’d be difficult against Man City.
Wolves are currently in a negative run of four consecutive losses in the Premier League. They have lost six of their seven matches in the league. Before the international break Wanderers faced Brentford away from home, and actually scored three goals, but the match ended with a 5-3 win for the Bees. Matheus Cunha, Jorgen Strand Larsen and Rayan Ait-Nouri scored for Wolves.
These three goals against Brentford will increase Wolves’ confidence, but it’s a fact that they still lost that match. And right now the team needs not just goals, but points.
Gary O’Neil could make some changes in his line-up against the champions. Hwang Hee-Chan and Goncalo Guedes could start while Jeanricner Bellegarde is also an option for the manager.
Manchester City continue unbeaten in the Premier League. Pep Guardiola’s team is second in the standings with 17 points – just one behind the leader Liverpool. The Cityzens are aware that each point could be decisive in the title race. And that’s why we expect to see them on high speed at the Molineux.
Before the break Manchester City enjoyed their 5th win for the season. The champions hosted Fulham at the Etihad, and it was surprisingly difficult – 3-2. Mateo Kovacic scored a brace for City while Jeremy Doku also put the ball in the net for the hosts. Bernardo Silva and Rico Lewis provided assists.
Erling Haaland remains Manchester City’s goalscoring machine. The Norwegian phenomenon has 10 league goals scored since the beginning of the season. This puts him four goals ahead of Chelsea’s Cole Palmer. Haaland didn’t score against Fulham, but now he could use this opportunity to add even more goals to his tally.
As you know, Rodri is out for the season for Manchester City while Kevin De Bruyne is also recovering from an injury.
Savinho could return in the starting eleven for Man City against Wolves. The Brazilian winger didn’t play against Fulham as Guardiola preferred to use Jack Grealish and Bernardo Silva in the line-up. But since joining City in the summer, Savinho is showing some promise. Maybe he will return in the team for the next match.
That’s the free soccer predictions daily for the Premier League match between Wolverhampton Wanderers and Manchester City. It wouldn’t be the first time for Wolves to hurt Guardiola’s City, but right now it looks very difficult for them. Wanderers are surely not in a good shape since the beginning of the campaign.
