Manchester City - Wolverhampton Wanderers predictions

No matter how you look at it, the outcome of this matchup isn’t much of a toss-up in terms of betting predictions. Manchester City are very hard favourites, and it would take a miracle for Wolverhampton Wanderers to manage an upset.

It’s hard to believe even the most optimistic Wolverhampton fans are expecting them to triumph at Manchester City this Saturday. It’s a completely one-sided matchup, and the hosts should have no problems steamrolling their opponents.

The decisive victory the hosts secured in their most recent Premier League round caught no one by surprise. Their opponents Nottingham Forest were heavily outmatched despite their home-field advantage and the large goal difference at the end was completely in line with most betting predictions.

The Wanderers defeated Luton Town in the previous round with a narrow 2:1 goal difference and a lead at both halftime and the final whistle. To be frank, this outcome wasn’t much of a surprise – top online bookmakers clearly favoured Wolves who also had the advantage of playing at home.

With 5 goals over the previous 3 matches, The Citizens attackers are nothing to be scoffed at. If the trend continues, we’ll see some rather impressive records from then by the end of the season.

The hosts’ hopes of a Premier League title this season seem hard to make real with so few opportunities to earn points left. They should be able to take 3 this Saturday, though, and a spot in the Champions League seems all but assured.

With a loss to Wolverhampton on the record, the home team’s status of clear favourites is brought into question. They lost a Premier League match earlier in the season, which came as a surprise to bookies and punters alike.

You can safely put down an Over 2.5 Goals bet on this match and feel very confident. If the teams’ records are any indication, 3 or more goals in this match are almost guaranteed.
