Two sides enjoying great form, Manchester City and Wolverhampton Wanderers, come head-to-head this Friday in the Premier League. The league is getting into the 35th round and finds hosts City in fourth place while Wolves are 13th. Read on for our prediction of the match.
Manchester City have regained their stability after a poor run midway through the season. They come into this game unbeaten in eight matches across all competitions.
The last time City experienced a better streak was between August and October 2024. Their latest outing brought a 2-0 win over Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup, a fourth straight win.
Wolverhampton Wanderers secured survival with a 3-0 win over Leicester City last time out. That was their sixth straight win and seventh unbeaten outing across all competitions.
At 41 points, Wolves are guaranteed a place in the league next season. In their last 11 league matches, they lost just twice. On their travels in the league, Vitor Pereira’s men have posted four straight victories.
Their last away match was in the City of Manchester, and they left with a 1-0 win over Manchester United. In their current shape, Wolves will hope to avenge their 2-1 defeat in the reverse meeting.
Manchester City would ordinarily walk into this match as favorites, but not this time. Desperate for a win to aid their top five push, City will have to be at their best for this Friday match. Wolves have troubled a number of top teams even though they rank low at this stage of the season.
Survival is confirmed for Wolves, and with City under pressure, the visitors will want to take advantage. Our prediction for Manchester City v Wolverhampton Wanderers is for both teams to score and over 2.5 goals.
