Wolverhampton take on the visitors Manchester City in the round 7 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Saturday, September 30th at Molineux Stadium (Wolverhampton).
Wolverhampton are yet to live up to the skeptical predictions. The Wolves were on the brink of relegation a year ago. They managed to avoid dropping into the Championship thanks to the successful decision to bring Lopetegui to the Molineux. Julen was able to earn enough points with his team to finish in the thirteenth position. However, during the summer, the project focused on player sales (Ruben Neves, Cody, Nunez, Podence, and also Diego Costa, Adama Traore, Moutinho left), and new signings only started coming in just before the transfer deadline. The Spanish manager didn't wait for the newcomers, resigning a week before the start of the new season. And it seems he was right: under his successor, O'Neil, the team only managed to secure points against Everton (1-0) and Luton (1-1). They also crushed Blackpool 5-0 in the League Cup but then lost 2-3 to Ipswich.

The Citizens are following a very tight schedule, in addition to the usual load in the Champions League, there are a couple of Super Cups (England and UEFA) as well as the League Cup, where they have already faced Newcastle and lost due to Isak's solitary goal. It's no wonder they are facing squad problems. In the first round, De Bruyne was injured, then Stones, Bernardo Silva, and Kovacic joined him in the infirmary. Moreover, against Nottingham Forest, Rodri lost his temper and received a red card in the 46th minute. However, this didn't prevent them from winning 2-0.
The Citizens have won all of their last 6 head-to-head matches. Guardiola will surely motivate his players after their cup exit, and the opponent is favorable. Let's bet on the champion to win with a -1.5 handicap.
Prediction for the match: Manchester City to win with -1.5 handicap.
