Latest Wolverhampton vs Man City team information
Ahead of the international break, Guardiola is hopeful both Kevin De Bruyne and Nathan Ake will be fit for the trip to Wolves, and fans are eagerly awaiting word from the Man City boss.
The return of De Bruyne and Ake will leave the visitors with just two players missing, with Rodri still recovering from an anterior cruciate ligament injury, and Oscar Bobb not due back until December.
Haaland, newly Norway's top scorer, will be looking to maintain his impressive run of eight goals in four Premier League games against Wolves, although only one has come away from home.
While City's injury situation has been positive, Wolves have been dealt a fresh blow over the international break, with Hwang Hee-chan suffering an ankle injury in the 2026 World Cup qualifier against Jordan. Hwang joins Yerson Mosquera, Sasa Kalajdzic, Enso Gonzalez and Boubacar Traore who have suffered knee injuries. However, O'Neil could be open to the services of young defender Bastien Meupiyou.
Hwang's issue will not affect O'Neil's attacking options; Jorgen Strand Larsen and Matheus Cunha, who could become the third Premier League player to lose five consecutive games when scoring, will continue to shoulder the goalscoring duties.
Latest expected lineup for Wolverhampton vs Man City

Latest football commentary on Wolverhampton vs Man City
Never far from the headlines off the pitch, Man City endured a turbulent international period. Pep Guardiola and England speculation intensified before Thomas Tuchel took charge at Wembley. Influential director Txiki Begiristain also announced his departure, while City and the Premier League won the APT regulations battle.
On the pitch, the reigning Premier League champions are yet to lose a game this season, although they struggled against Fulham, who shocked the visitors by taking an early lead at the Etihad through Andreas Pereira. However, Mateo Kovacic and Jeremy Doku helped City turn things around, and although Rodrigo Muniz reduced the deficit, it was not enough for the Cottagers to salvage a win.
The win keeps City within a point of leaders Liverpool and also keeps them level on goal difference with Arsenal. Arsenal can leapfrog both rivals in the title race if they beat Bournemouth on Saturday. Guardiola's players will be keen to avoid defeat in the West Midlands on Sunday; if they get at least a point, they will set a new Premier League record of 31 consecutive games without defeat.
Meanwhile, Wolves are in deep trouble at the bottom of the table, welcoming the champions on a run of five straight defeats and ten without a win in the Premier League. Despite a decent attack with an eight-game scoring streak, Gary O'Neil's side have conceded 15 goals in their last five defeats.
If Man City are to set a record unbeaten run this weekend, Wolves will be in danger of losing their first four home games in their history. O'Neil led Wolves to a surprise 2-1 win over Man City last season, but the team have lost seven of the last eight meetings between the two sides, including a 5-1 defeat in May in which Erling Haaland scored four goals.
While Wolves may look sharp in attack, their poor defence could see them suffer a painful defeat at home to champions Guardiola.
