Five out of five
No team is on a better run of form than Man City, they’ve won five straight Premier League matches.
The Cityzens were able to bring both Jack Grealish and Phil Foden back into the starting line-up after recent injuries and this paid dividends immediately as Foden assisted Raheem Sterling’s fourth minute opener.
Despite being moved back into midfield in recent matches, Bernardo Silva has maintained his goal scoring run scoring a brace against Watford and five in his last five Premier League matches.

Winless in three
Wolves thought they’d held off Liverpool for a draw, however, substitute, Divock Origi spoiled that with his 94th minute winner to take all three points home.
Liverpool came into that match scoring by far the most Premier League goals so far including 12 in their previous three matches but as predicted, Wolves wouldn’t be as easy to roll over.
Wolves allowed 67% possession and looked to attack on the counter, expect a similar game plan as they travel to Manchester to face the league leaders.
Manchester City vs Wolverhampton Wanderers predictions
Wolves face another significant test here as they take on their second top three side in consecutive weeks.
Just like in Wolves’ previous match we do not expect there to be a goal fest, Wolves were able to nullify Liverpool until deep into injury time and we expect similar here. We predict there will be under 2.5 goals in this match.
We expect Man City to win but just like in Wolves’ last match we can see them losing by one or maybe two goals so we predict that Man City will win with under 2.5 goals in the match.

Kevin De Bruyne returned to the starting line-up in Tuesday’s Champions League defeat to RB Leipzig, while Foden and Grealish made their second straight starts.
With City already qualified from their group, this was a chance for these to all get back up to speed in match fitness. It remains to be seen whether they start on the weekend.
Ferran Torres and Gabriel Jesus will miss this one.

Willy Boly remains out as do long term absentees Jonny, Yerson Mosquera and Pedro Neto.
