Bottom side Wolves face a daunting task on Sunday afternoon, as they host champions Manchester City at Molineux. Gary O'Neil's side have picked up just one point from their opening seven games and are conceding goals at an alarming rate (21 in 7). Their defensive issues came to the fore in their last game, a 5-3 thumping at Brentford in which all five of the home side's goals were the result of defensive errors. City have had a few defensive issues of their own, and it has been six games since they last kept a clean sheet. In their last match, they had to come from behind to edge out Fulham 3-2, with Croatian midfielder Mateo Kovacic the unlikely hero with two goals.

Wolves - Manchester City Key Points

  1. Wolves have conceded at least twice in their last 5 games
  2. Both teams have scored in City's last 6 league games
  3. Wolves have gone 19 Premier League games without a clean sheet
  4. City have scored at least twice in 15 of their last 16 games

Our Wolves vs Manchester City Prediction

Since last February, Wolves have won just one out of 19 Premier League games. That makes them impossible to trust in any match, let alone one against the Premier League champions. As for City, they have not been at their best in recent weeks, but Erling Haaland has started the campaign in incredible goalscoring form and we simply cannot see Wolves keeping him at bay. Given both sides' defensive problems, we think there is plenty of value in backing an away win with at least four goals being scored. Our prediction for Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Manchester City is: Man City to win and over 3.5 goals, +133 at BetMGM.

Prediction:

 

Man City to win and over 3.5 goals
