Comments and predictions for Man City vs Wolverhampton: Home team wins hard

Latest Man City vs Wolverhampton squad information

Man City are still without key players such as Erling Haaland, Rodri, Nathan Ake and John Stones. Oscar Bobb and goalkeeper Ederson are also uncertain to recover.

So Stefan Ortega could continue to start, while Omar Marmoush would replace Haaland in attack. Notably, all six of Marmoush's Premier League goals this season have come at the Etihad Stadium.

Guardiola will have James McAtee back after his suspension in the FA Cup semi-final, while Jack Grealish, Savinho and Jeremy Doku are all competing for places up front.

Midfielder Kevin De Bruyne also hopes to start, as he has an impressive record against Wolves with 10 goal contributions in 9 matches (5 goals, 5 assists).

De Bruyne is certain to leave Man City, while for Wolves, Matheus Cunha's future remains unclear. The Brazilian has had 21 goal contributions in the Premier League this season – second only to Raul Jimenez (23 in 2019-20).

Like Man City’s Stones – who scored the winner at Molineux – Strand Larsen also scored in the first leg in October. He is now in top form with six goals in his last six games, four of which have been decisive.

Goalkeeper Sam Johnstone missed the Leicester game, but Hwang Hee-chan and Jean-Ricner Bellegarde returned to the bench. Meanwhile, Sasa Kalajdzic, Enso Gonzalez and Yerson Mosquera are recovering from long-term injuries.

Latest expected lineup for Man City vs Wolverhampton

Manchester City:
Ortega; Nunes, Dias, Gvardiol, O'Reilly; Silva, Kovacic, Gundogan; Doku, De Bruyne, Marmoush

Wolverhampton Wanderers:
Sa; Bueno, Agbadou, Toti; Semedo, Andre, Gomes, Ait-Nouri; Munetsi, Cunha; Strand Larsen

Latest Man City vs Wolverhampton football review

Last weekend brought mixed emotions for Manchester City fans as their team qualified for the domestic cup final but also officially lost the Premier League title.

While Pep Guardiola's team beat Nottingham Forest 2-0 at Wembley thanks to goals in each half, Liverpool were officially crowned champions, ending Man City's long reign in England's top flight.

Before facing Crystal Palace in the final, Man City need to secure a place in the top 5 of the Premier League, at least a Champions League spot, to salvage an unimpressive season.

Thanks to Matheus Nunes' injury-time winner against Aston Villa, City have now taken 14 points from their last 18 and a win at Wolves this weekend could see them temporarily move up to third.

Victory would also see them make it four consecutive Premier League wins for the first time since the opening four rounds of the season, which has been unusually inconsistent this campaign.

Although the current squad is plagued by injuries and is not as solid as before, history is still on City's side: they have won eight of their last nine home games against Wolves.

While Man City are gradually reviving, Wolves are also full of hope with a streak of 6 consecutive wins in the Premier League - the longest in the tournament to date.

The Midlands side have only once in their history won seven consecutive top-flight games, and that was nearly 80 years ago – so Vitor Pereira's men are closing in on a historic milestone.

In the most recent match, two strikers in high form, Jorgen Strand Larsen and Matheus Cunha, continued to score, helping Wolves easily defeat Leicester City 3-0 at Molineux Stadium.

The win extended their impressive run of form and has kept them out of the relegation zone altogether. Strand Larsen scored the home side's second in the 56th minute, when the game was all but decided.

Finishing the season on a high, Wolves – who were battling relegation not long ago – are now just one point behind 12th-placed Crystal Palace if they win again on Friday.

While their recent record against Man City has been poor – since winning both legs in 2019-20, Wolves have lost eight of their nine meetings – they are still confident thanks to a run of four consecutive away wins.

Pereira's side travel to Manchester hoping to avenge their 5-1 thrashing by Erling Haaland at the Etihad this time last year.
