Manchester United to face Wolverhampton Wanderers at Old Trafford

Manchester United is trying to get its Champions League campaign back on track following two consecutive Premier League defeats. Last Saturday at the London Stadium, a costly David de Gea error handed West Ham the victory. The Red Devils are only one point ahead of Liverpool, who have played one more game than Erik ten Hag’s team. The competition for the top four is heating up this season, with United and Newcastle dropping points on the weekend while Jurgen Klopp’s Reds made it six victories in a row. Despite a shaky start, Wolves are securely placed in the Premier League table and have no fear of relegation this season.

The match will come too soon for Raphael Varane, who is still recovering from an ankle ailment. Lisandro Martinez, Donny van de Beek, Scott McTominay, and Alejandro Garnacho are all out on Saturday. Chiquinho, the Wolves’ winger, will miss the game as he heals from a long-term knee injury.

Based on their previous encounters, Manchester United is most likely to win this match against Wolverhampton Wanderers. Manchester United has won 12 out of 20 of their previous matches and they are in good home form. Wolverhampton Wanderers, on the other hand, is performing poorly when playing away and has only averaged 0.65 points per game in away matches this season. Taking these factors into consideration, it’s highly likely that Manchester United will win this match.
