THE LOWDOWN

WOLVES

Wolves' struggle for results continued with a 1-1 draw with promoted side Luton last weekend, which is hardly ideal preparation for them to face the reigning Premier League champions.

To make matter worse, only two sides have conceded more goals than Gary O'Neil's men at this stage of the season, and against such a fearsome Man City attack, it is difficult to see them holding out for 90 minutes.

MAN CITY

Man City still maintain a perfect record in the Premier League this season, with six wins from six, but they know they cannot afford to slip up with a host of teams waiting for them to drop points.

Last season's treble winners will not be adding the Carabao Cup to their trophy cabinet this time around though, with Pep Guardiola's men having been eliminated from that competition by Newcastle on Wednesday.

THE TEAM NEWS

WOLVES

With Joe Hodge returning to the bench in the midweek Carabao Cup fixture, Gary O'Neil appears to have a fully-fit squad at his disposal.

He will not be able to call upon the services of Tommy Doyle and Jean-Ricner Bellegarde though, who are unavailable through ineligibility and suspension respectively.

PREDICTED XI (4-2-3-1): Sa; Semedo, Dawson, Kilman, Ait-Nouri; Lemina, Gomes; Neto, Sarabia, Hwang; Cunha

UNAVAILABLE: Doyle (Ineligible), Bellegarde (Suspended)

QUESTIONABLE:

MAN CITY

Mateo Kovacic and Jack Grealish made their returns from injury in the midweek Carabao Cup match, with Kovacic in particular likely to start in the absence of the suspended Rodri.

John Stones and Kevin De Bruyne are definitely out but the situation regarding Bernardo Silva's availability is unclear.

PREDICTED XI (4-2-3-1): Ederson; Walker, Akanji, Dias, Gvardiol; Nunes, Kovacic; Foden, Alvarez, Foden; Haaland

UNAVAILABLE: Stones (Injured), Rodri (Suspended), De Bruyne (Injured)

QUESTIONABLE: Bernardo (Injured)

THE PREDICTION

Although the midweek Carabao Cup elimination will have been a disappointment for Pep Guardiola, he will not let that setback destabilise his team's league form, with the reigning champions still boasting a 100% win rate in the division. Wolves have actually performed well against this big clubs this season, despite not having anything to show for it, but City have been the team to beat so far, and look more than capable of shutting out their opponents in victory.

TIP: MAN CITY TO WIN TO NIL
