Team Analysis
Wolves have endured a challenging start to the season, failing to secure a win so far. This has left them at the bottom of the league standings. Despite their struggles, the club’s management is showing patience with Gary O'Neill, given the tough schedule they've faced. Injuries to key players like Gonzalez, Mosquera, Traore, and Kalajic have further compounded their difficulties. Their recent 3-5 loss to Brentford highlights defensive vulnerabilities, and facing Manchester City will be a formidable challenge.

City has experienced mixed results, partly due to the absence of key player Rodri through injury. Despite this, they have remained resilient, with a tight 3-2 victory over Fulham in their last outing. The return of Nathan Ake is a positive, but the team will still be without De Bruyne, Rodri, and Oscar Bobb. City’s recent performances have not been their best, suggesting the international break may have been beneficial for regrouping.

Head-to-Head
Historically, Wolves have been a tricky opponent for Manchester City, but recent encounters have favored City. In the last eight meetings, City has lost only once to Wolves, and that defeat was at Molineux last season.

Prediction
Given both teams' current form, Manchester City is expected to dominate the match. However, Wolves have shown they can find the net against City at home, as they have scored in 5 of their last 6 home matches against them. This leads to a prediction where both teams are likely to score. The match could end in a 2-1 victory for Manchester City, with City taking advantage of Wolves' defensive frailties but also experiencing some defensive lapses themselves.

Pick: Both Teams To Score - Yes
