Manchester City take on the visitors Wolverhampton in the round 36 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Saturday, April 4th at Etihad Stadium (Manchester).
Manchester City is very close to securing another Premier League trophy. The "Citizens" simply must claim the gold medals of the championship, otherwise the season could be considered a failure. I think they will succeed in doing so. But this forecast is about something else. The bookmakers got too excited by Manchester City's two consecutive clean-sheet victories (against Brighton and Nottingham) and are offering odds higher than 2.0 for a goal from the "Wolves" against Ederson. In my opinion, the hosts could very well concede in this match. Prior to the two clean-sheet matches, the "Citizens" conceded goals in five out of six consecutive matches: victories against Manchester United (3-1), Crystal Palace (4-2), Aston Villa (4-1), Luton Town (5-1), and a draw with Liverpool (1-1).

Wolverhampton didn't fight for high positions, nor did they fight for survival. At the end of the championship, fans of this team won't need to drink valerian, as the team comfortably sits in the middle of the table (in 11th place). As for the attack, the "Wolves" are doing well - they scored 48 goals in 35 Premier League matches, finding the net 23 times in 17 away matches. In the last round, the team prevailed over Luton Town (2-1). Slightly earlier, there were draws with Burnley (1-1), Nottingham Forest (2-2), and a defeat to West Ham (1-2). In four out of the last six Premier League matches, the team has played Over 2.5 goals. I believe that even in the battle with the formidable Manchester City, the "Wolves" have a chance to score at least once.
Wolverhampton is far from the most comfortable opponent for Guardiola's Manchester City, and since returning to the English football elite, they have sensationally defeated the favorite several times. This includes the first-round match, when the "Wolves" defeated the champion 2-1 at home. Yes, now the match will be a home one for the "Citizens". And the hosts need the victory like air. There are practically no doubts about it. But there are doubts that Manchester City will keep a clean sheet for the third consecutive match in the Premier League, and they are quite substantial. Pep's defense is far from perfect. And the "Wolves" are quite capable of showing their teeth in attack. I bet that the guests will score as much as they can in this match (at least once), and the hosts will score as many as they want. It's a sin not to take a risk for such a tasty odds and not to try to catch the "Both Teams to Score" bet.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score – yes.
