Man City v Wolves: Prediction, tips and bet builder as Citizens look to stop rampant Wanderers

Man City return to Premier League duties this Friday night as they welcome a high-flying Wolves side to the Etihad Stadium (2000 GMT).

Pep Guardiola’s men are beginning to tighten their grip on the top five, with Champions League เล่น UFABET ผ่านมือถือ สะดวกทุกที่ ทุกเวลา qualification now firmly in sight.

The Citizens are one of the most in-form teams in the Premier League at the moment having won four of their last five games. They’re also unbeaten in six.

Interestingly, the one team with a better recent record than City are their opponents on Friday night – Vitor Pereira’s Wolverhampton.

The Portuguese manager has completely transforme the club’s fortunes, not only taking them away from the threat of relegation but also overseeing their ongoing six-match winning run.

History beckons for Wolves as they look to win seven straight top-flight games for the first time since 1946.

Of course, getting a win at the Etihad is a lot easier said than done. Even though City are not firing on all cylinders, Guardiola’s men head into Friday’s fixture as heavy favourites as they set their sights on a fifth straight win across all competitions.

City certainly have momentum under their belts after beating Nottingham Forest 2-0 at Wembley last weekend, in order to book their ticket to a third straight FA Cup final.

Winning the FA Cup and finishing in the top five wouldn’t normally represent a strong season for the Citizens, though considering the slump they endure earlier in the year, it wouldn’t be a bad way to end the campaign.

While they are the big favourites, this promises to be a tricky encounter for City. Wolves did the league double over Guardiola’s men six years ago and they also picked up a cheeky win back in September 2023.
