Wolves - Manchester United: Form Analysis
Wolves come into this game in solid form in the Premier League. They have won three, drawn two and lost just one of their last six games and their home record is even better as they have recorded four wins and a draw in their last five at Molineux. Gary O'Neil's team have lost just two games at home this season, and have beaten Manchester City, Tottenham and Chelsea at Molineux this season. They will have to overcome a poor recent record against United having won just one and drawn three of the last 11 games between the two in all competitions. Wolves have found the net 16 times in 10 home games this season, conceding 14 with games seeing Over 2.5 goals 70% of the time at Molineux this season.
Manchester United's recent record is the exact opposite of Wolves in the last 6 EPL games. Erik Ten Hag's team have won one, drawn two and lost three and that has seen them drop down the table to 8th, just a point ahead of Chelsea. Consistency has been a real problem for the Red Devils this season, especially away from home where they have managed to score just 9 goals and have lost half of the ten EPL games they have played on the road. Just 40% of United's away games this season have seen over 2.5 goals scored and they average just two goals in their away games this season, comfortably the fewest in the Premier League. With both teams scoring in just 30% of United's away games, it does look like whoever gets the first goal on Thursday night will have a big advantage in this game.

Wolves & Manchester United Squad Analysis
Wolves will be without three players for definite for the game with Manchester United. Joao Gomes is suspended for this game, while Boubacar Traore is still at the African Cup of Nations representing his country and 10-goal striker Hwang Hee-Chan is doing likewise for South Korea at the Asian Cup. Midfielder Pablo Sarabia is another doubt through injury. Wolves look likely to adopt a 3-4-3 formation for the game with United with the excellent Pedro Neto providing the width down the left while the powerful Max Kilman will be the defensive lynchpin for the home team.
Manchester United will be without Anthony Martial, Tyrell Malacia and Victor Lindelof through injury for this game, while it may just be too soon for Mason Mount to make his return from a lengthy spell on the sidelines. Sofyan Amrabat is still representing Morocco at the African Cup of Nations too. There are question marks over Marcus Rashford too as the striker missed out on the weekend FA Cup win at Newport due to what was reported as an illness, although manager Erik Ten Hag did add "the rest is an internal matter" leading to speculation that there may have been more to Rashford's absence than initially stated.
