Manchester City travel to Molineux to take on Wolves, who have struggled so far this season and currently reside at the bottom of the Premier League table. Read on to see our predicted lineups for this crucial matchup!

Pep Guardiola is unbeaten this season under his leadership and hopes to extend their unbeaten streak against Arsenal, who trail by one point. Rodri and Oscar Bobb are unavailable while Kevin de Bruyne and Nathan Ake should make appearances off the bench.

Man City vs Wolves

Manchester City will aim to maintain their perfect start to the Premier League season when they visit Wolverhampton Wanderers on Sunday afternoon. Currently unbeaten following Arsenal’s loss at Bournemouth 24 hours prior, and hoping for victory in Molineux would see them move into first position – potentially becoming reigning champions once more!

Pep Guardiola is expected to field the same team that defeated Fulham last weekend, and Phil Foden and Erling Haaland are likely to play key roles. Haaland presents an immediate threat on the right wing and should exploit Wolves’ low block tactics while England international Foden will hope for another scorer-scoring opportunity.

Rico Lewis could replace Kyle Walker in the starting eleven, with Ilkay Gundogan and Mateo Kovacic likely starting together at central midfield. Savinho could take his spot on the left wing while Jack Grealish will pair up with Jeremy Doku on the other flank.

Wolverhampton Wanderers have endured an inauspicious start to the season under Gary O’Neil, with four consecutive losses leaving them at the bottom of the table and 21 goals conceded so far this campaign. O’Neil will hope his squad can find some form of revival before Sunday’s meeting against City but this doesn’t seem likely at this stage.

Hosts were fortunate not to suffer major injuries during this international break, though Hwang Hee-chan will miss action due to an ankle injury incurred while playing for South Korea, while Yerson Mosquera still cannot return due to knee issues.

Possible Lineups

This weekend will see two teams at opposite ends of the Premier League table meet when Wolves host reigning champions Manchester City. Wolves boss Gary O’Neil is desperate for his side’s first win of the year after suffering through an unsuccessful start; in contrast, City remain unbeaten and sit at the top of the league.

Pep Guardiola should have almost an unblemished squad available for Sunday’s match at Molineux Stadium, with only Kevin De Bruyne and Nathan Ake possibly unavailable due to injury. Both players received knocks while away on international duty and are unlikely to feature.

Ederson will likely start in goal, with John Stones and Aymeric Laporte expected to partner him in central defence. Josko Gvardiol could feature at left-back while Rico Lewis should start in right back for the visitors. Meanwhile, Mateo Kovacic should remain in a defensive role while Ilkay Gundogan will provide box-to-box presence alongside him in midfield.

Forwards: Sergio Aguero, Gabriel Jesus, Raheem Sterling and Bernardo Silva will all play their third consecutive match for City in this fixture. These players possess the talent needed to break through stubborn defences and aim to extend their good form this weekend.

Wolves remain without Pedro Neto due to a hamstring injury. Fullback Rayan Ait Nouri remains out for O’Neil as well, while striker Hee-chan Hwang remains out with an ankle issue.

Wolves remain hopeful of surprising Manchester City at home this season despite their slow start, with an excellent record against them at Molineux and J Wilson-Esbrand’s return as captain and club legend bolstering them further. Goncalo Guedes, Carlos Forbs, Hee-chan Hwang Jorgen Strand Larsen and Sasa Kalajdzic could provide ample attacking options but it will likely prove tough going against their well-drilled defence.

Injury Updates

injuries have beset Manchester City this season, yet Pep Guardiola remains hopeful that some players can return for Sunday’s match against Wolverhampton. Kevin De Bruyne remains out due to a groin strain suffered against Fulham but Nathan Ake could make his comeback from an international break hamstring strain setback. Rodri and Oscar Bobb are still sidelined while Phil Foden and Jack Grealish could make their comebacks at Molineux.

Wolves have experienced an inauspicious start to the season, failing to win any Premier League game for seven games straight. Manager Gary O’Neil must try and restore belief among his squad but their injury crisis remains a cause for serious concern; Hwang Hee-chan suffered an ankle injury while on international duty and is likely not available, while Sasa Kalajdzic and Enso Gonzalez remain sidelined.

City defender John Stones will likely remain at centre-back alongside Ruben Dias for their next match against Wolves and Jorgen Strand Larsen’s towering striker Jorgen Strand Larsen, although Guardiola may need to exercise caution with this matchup given they have conceded 13 goals over their past four games and will surely factor this into his selection process.

On the midfield front, he is likely to select Ilkay Gundogan and Mateo Kovacic as a trusted pairing, providing excellent defensive coverage while adding pace on counterattack. Sergio Aguero and Raheem Sterling should also start against Fulham after slow starts to their respective campaigns. Both men are keen on scoring goals. Josko Gvardiol will likely retain his place on the left of defence, acting to protect City’s vulnerable wing-backs from Wolves’ attacking threat. Gabriel Jesus should continue his impressive early season form – already scoring two goals in three appearances for City this term!

Match Preview

City were second in the Premier League table before the international break and one point behind leaders Liverpool. Now with Champions League qualifying looming large on their horizon, Pep Guardiola will look to get his side back to winning ways when they visit last-place Wolves on Tuesday evening.

City has had an inauspicious start to their campaign, suffering numerous injuries and indifferent performances that have limited their progress. But momentum appears to be gathering and victory at Molineux could bring them within two points of Liverpool after just five games played.

Guardiola must be delighted that no key players experienced any injury-related setbacks during the international break, meaning he should be able to field his strongest possible squad for this game.

GK: Ederson – As in every league game this season, Brazilian goalkeeper Ederson will start in goal for City. His on-ball ability should help kick-start their attack and hold Wolves at bay.

Rico Lewis – Rico Lewis has already impressed in his early outings and may start alongside experienced Kyle Walker in right back. But to do so successfully he must remain mindful of Joao Moutinho who could challenge for possession down his right flank.

CB: Ruben Dias – Pep Guardiola may opt to continue with his Akanji-Dias pairing in light of John Stones’ absence; however, Ruben will be put through rigorous trials by tall Wolves centre-back Jorgen Strand Larsen.

Gael Clichy will continue playing his preferred central position where he can cover ground and provide defensive depth. He will hope to add to his impressive tally this season but will face a stiff test from a formidable Wolves defence.

Center-Midfielder: Ilkay Gundogan – Gundogan will be expected to lead from the middle and should flourish without Rodri’s presence in midfield. His performances against Slovan Bratislava before the break were outstanding and will play an instrumental role here as well.

Forwards: Bernardo Silva – Bernardo Silva will aim to push for regular starting spot and will likely feature against Wolves again, looking to add another impressive goal against struggling visitors.
