Man City vs Wolves: Score prediction, team news, odds, live stream, TV, tickets – Premier League preview

Man City vs Wolves
Premier League 2018-19
Venue: Etihad Stadium
Kick-off: 8pm GMT

Manchester City turn their attention back to their Premier League title defence tonight as Wolves head to the Etihad.

Pep Guardiola's side enjoyed a huge 9-0 EFL Cup semi-final first leg win over Burton on Wednesday night, and will be in the mood for more goals as they bid to chase down League leaders Liverpool.

With Jurgen Klopp's pace-setters winning 1-0 at Brighton on Saturday, City will have to beat Nuno Espirito Santo's impressive Wolves side to close the gap at the top back to four points.

Score prediction: Man City 3-1 Wolves

Wolves have time to prepare for another big test following their surprise FA Cup win over Liverpool, but Guardiola's City side look to have refound their focus after a difficult December.

It would be no surprise to see Nuno's side trouble City's defence, but the champions should have enough about them to win - particularly after Guardiola gave the likes of Sergio Aguero and Raheem Sterling a much-needed rest against Burton.
