Wolves vs Manchester City: Premier League preview

Manchester City shows signs of looking more like their old selves after the new year following a disastrous first half of the 2024/25 season...the FA Cup final being a notable exception.

But the same could be said of Wolves in the Premier League. They were in the relegation zone when Vitor Pereira took over from Gary O'Neil last December, but climbed out of it practically immediately under the Portuguese and hit a fine run of winning form in March that pushed them 17 points clear of the drop in the final reckoning.

Wolves have set about trying to carry that momentum into the new season despite the departure of two of their best players - one to each Manchester club.

The hugely influential Matheus Cunha joined Manchester United in a £62.5m deal, and they could go up against left-back Rayan Ait-Nouri in a City shirt in this season opener.

David Moller Wolfe has joined from AZ as Ait Nouri's replacement, while Wolves fans will be delighted that 14-goal striker and fellow Norwegian Jorgen Strand Larsen has made his loan move from Celta Vigo permanent. He's joined by Celta teammate Fer Lopez and potential wildcard Jhon Arias, the Colombian international who shone at the Club World Cup this summer for semi-finalists Fluminense.

City got plenty of business done last January, and they have continued on that vein this summer with Rayan Cherki, Tijjani Reijnders, Sverre Nypan and James Trafford all coming in for eight-figure fees.

Despite Pep Guardiola's claims that he wants a smaller squad, then, City look to have a younger, hungrier, deeper side this season - and he will want them to hit the ground running as they look to get back on top of the pile with another Premier League trophy.

Wolves vs Manchester City: Expected line-ups

FourFourTwo's prediction

Wolves 0-2 Manchester City

We're expecting Wolves to put up a respectable fight, but even after last season's struggles, only a fool would back against Manchester City until given a good reason to do so.
