Wolverhampton Wanderers, Recent FormIt was just a point apiece for Wolverhampton Wanderers and Luton Town in their last match, which ended in a 1-1 draw. Their share of possession in that meeting was 43%, while racking up 3 shots along the way, 3 of which were on target, in contrast to Luton Town, who had 20 shots on goal with 4 on target.
Manager Gary O'Neil will be shining a spotlight on his team's poor defensive record of late, having conceded 12 goals in their last 6 games, despite picking up a modest amount of points due in no small part to the 6 goals they managed at the other end. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
They will be looking to try and improve on a largely bad set of recent results that have seen them defeated in 4 of their last 6 league matches, with just a single victory recorded. It's fair to say they'll need a serious change of form if they want to start moving up the table.
On an individual basis, Hee-chan Hwang will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 3 goals in Wolverhampton Wanderers' last 6 league games.
Manchester City, Recent FormHaving taken all 3 points, with a crucial 2-0 home win over Nottingham Forest in their last league game, Manchester City will undoubtedly be very satisfied with their work. They came away from that fixture with a 58% share of the possession and clocked up 7 attempts on goal with 4 on target, in comparison to Nottingham Forest, who managed 10 attempts on goal, 3 of which were on target.
Manager Pep Guardiola will be delighted with his team's performances recently, having scored 16 goals in their last 6 games whilst conceding only 3. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games.
They are showing impressive form with a run of 6 straight wins in a row.
Goalscorer Erling Haaland will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 8 goals in his last 6 league matches for Manchester City.
A defeat for Wolverhampton Wanderers in their last match against Manchester City was not completely unexpected, but they will have been disappointed to lose by 3 goals.
During the last 2 times these two teams have met in the league, Wolves have been unable to break through The Citizens' defence and find the back of the net. In the past 8 away matches at Wolves in the league, The Citizens have consistently found the net, scoring at least 1 goal in each of those encounters. Wolves have struggled to break down the Man City defence in their past encounters having only managed to find the back of the net 2 times in their last 5 meetings. We've seen plenty of goals from Man City when they've visited Wolves in the league, in their last 3 games they've scored a total of 11 goals, which is an average of 3.67 per game.
Man City will be looking to continue their winning streak against Wolves, having won each of the last 6 times they have met in the league and being unbeaten in their last 6 meetings.
Man City player Kevin De Bruyne will be looking to cause Wolves some problems having scored 5 goals in the last 3 league meetings between the teams at Molineux Stadium.
There is only really one injury concern for the Wolves manager Gary O'Neil ahead of this clash, with Joe Hodge (Unknown) missing out, which gives O'Neil a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
Pep Guardiola has a number of injury concerns in his Man City squad to contend with: Kevin De Bruyne (Hamstring), Jérémy Doku (Thigh), Jack Grealish (Muscle), Mateo Kovačić (Back), Bernardo Silva (Unknown), Zack Steffen (Knee surgery) and John Stones (Thigh)
