Match Analysis
Manchester City comes into this fixture on a strong run, having secured three consecutive wins against Aston Villa, Everton, and Crystal Palace. Notably, they have shown prowess at both ends of the pitch, scoring a total of 9 goals while conceding only 3 across these matches. City's offensive capabilities are further highlighted by their average of 2.2 goals scored in the last five games.

Their ability to both score freely and maintain defensive solidity makes them formidable opponents. A key factor to watch will be City’s attacking fluidity, which could overwhelm Wolves, especially if the game opens up as predicted with over 2.5 goals.
