Wolverhampton vs Manchester United: prediction for the English Premier League match
The Wolves take on the Red Devils in the Premier League on December 31. What to expect from this fixture? Our answer is in the prediction below.
Command Analysis
Wolverhampton Wanderers
EnglandWolverhampton have started the second half of the season under the management of Julen Lopetegui. They got an easy victory over Gillingham (2:0) thus advancing to the quarterfinals. In the Premier League, the Wolves managed a narrow victory over Everton (2:1), which gave them hope - the team is now only two points short of leaving the relegation zone.
In the last three home games, Wolverhampton suffered defeats and conceded a total of nine goals. Only Southampton collected fewer points than the Wolves at home. But Julen Lopetegui will try to turn things around for Wolverhampton.
Today the hosts will be without Chiquinho, Neto, and Kalajdzic.
Manchester United
EnglandManchester United are coming into this fixture off the back of a comfortable victory over Nottingham Forest (3:0). That was so far the smoothest victory of the Red Devils under Erik ten Hag. The team hope to make it into the top four and get Champions League next year.
Currently, Man United are trailing Tottenham, who are 4th, by one point. They lost only one of their last 14 games across all tournaments, but the defensive line still has quite a lot of problems - Man United concede too many goals.
The visitors have ruled out Dalot, Sancho, and Tuanzebe.
