Man City v Wolves betting tips: Can Wolves stop City’s firing forwards?

Both sides have no fresh injury concerns, with only Benjamin Mendy and Claudio Bravo remaining sidelined for the champions.

Star striker Sergio Aguero has been out with illness for the last two, but is expected to return to the starting XI for this game, despite Gabriel Jesus scoring five in the two games he’s deputised for City’s number 10.

Wolves have a full squad to choose from, with Diogo Jota returning from injury in the FA Cup win against Liverpool last time out.

Wolves’ front man Raul Jimenez will look to maintain his strong form against top-six sides, scoring four in seven league games.

Key Battles

With Kevin De Bruyne back fit and returning to form, the Wolves midfield will have to keep a close eye on the Belgian creative midfielder. Can Ruben Neves and Joao Moutinho shut him down, or will De Bruyne run the show?

Pep Guardiola likes to rotate his wide men, so the Wolves full-backs will need to be ready for whoever Pep throws at them.

Matt Doherty and Jonny Otto will need to match what the likes of Leroy Sane, Raheem Sterling and Riyad Mahrez have, whilst also maintaining their attacking threat.

Can Wolves forwards outscore City’s? Jimenez has been a revelation for the Wanderers this season, and with Aguero, you know exactly what you’re getting. Can either front-man lead their side to victory, or will the defence come out on top?

Match Odds

The hosts are understandably hot favourites to pick up the win with odds of 2/11. Wolves sit back on 16/1 to get the victory.

If you fancy a repeat of the draw earlier this season, there are odds of 6/1 for a draw of any kind. Alternatively, a repeat 1-1 scoreline has odds of 12/1.

Kun Aguero is favourite to open the scoring for City with odds of 3/1, and 4/5 to score anytime. Jesus, Sane and Sterling all sit back as second favourites to score first at 4/1.

With Jimenez turning up for the big occasion against top-six sides regularly, you can get odds of 4/1 on him scoring anytime, with Wolves scorer from the first fixture Boly coming in at 14/1 to score in the game.
