Sunday’s match between Wolverhampton Wanderers and Manchester City under Pep Guardiola at the Etihad Stadium marks the return of the Premier League to action.
This season, Wolverhampton Wanderers have not lived up to expectations and are currently 16th in the Premier League standings. Last week, the away team lost to Liverpool in the FA Cup, and they will need to get back on track in this game.
On the other hand, Manchester City is currently in second place in the league but has not performed at its best this season. In their previous match, the Cityzens staged a stunning comeback to defeat Tottenham Hotspur by a score of 4-2, and they will attempt to repeat that feat this weekend.
