Manchester City welcome the visitors Wolverhampton Wanderers in the English Premiere League – Round 22. The match will be held on Monday, January 14th, at the Etihad Stadium (Manchester).
The two weird consecutive PL losses to Crystal Palace and Leicester City have only added to the Manchester City’s championship ambitions. The team have bounced back at once and won not only the frugal Southampton out, 3:1 (3:1), but their main gold medals rival Liverpool, 2:1 (1:0), at the Etihad arena, and smashed poor Rotherham United, 7:0 (3:0), and Burton Albion, 9:0 (4:0), in the FA Cup and the League Cup fixtures, respectively. In brackets, you may see the results of the clashes’ first halves.

In our view, in the coming encounter against Wolverhampton Wanderers, the ferocious ‘Citizens’ will take the bull by the horns since the very first minutes of the match, thus not letting the guests play in their favorite sticky manner that puts off the opponents’ guard off. Many times in this campaign, this style have brought ‘Wolves’ points in their meetings with the league toppers. Ahead of the kick-off, the hosts’ manager Guardiola has probably studied this manner closely.
As far as the visitors are concerned, they will surely oppose somehow to the ‘monstrous’ hosts. Moreover, so far, they managed highflying PL teams both at home and in outings. Anyways, there is a gulf in the opponents’ class, besides, the ‘Wolves’’ performance is far from being called consistent these days – the guests conceded to Crystal Palace, 0:2, to Cardiff City, 1:2, to Huddersfield Town, 0:2, and to other lowly clubs.
We expect another triumph by the magnificent Manchester City who must convert their advantage into goals as soon the match breaks.
Prediction for the match: Manchester City to win in the first half – Yes.
