Our prediction for this Premier League match:
Wolves
Match Time & Date:
20 October 2024

Prediction: 0-2
Man City
Molineux Stadium will host Sunday’s football game between Wolverhampton and Manchester City, the two teams who are sitting in the opposite halves of the table. The Wolves do not seem to be competitive at this level and given their four-game losing run in the Premier League, home win should not be considered. All Sasa Kalajdzic, Boubacar Traore and Enso Gonzalez remain in the recovery room, while Bastien Meupiyou is a major doubt.
The Citizens, on the other hand, aim to build on a hard-fought 3-2 win over Fulham. Man City have a chance to overtake Liverpool in top position and we predict that they will take advantage of Wolverhampton’s shaky defence. In their last meeting at Molineux Wolverhampton shocked Man City (2-1), meaning that Pep Guardiola’s troops are hungry for revenge. The Catalan tactician is unlikely to risk Kevin De Bruyne and Nathan Ake, while Rodri is a long-term absentee.
Highlighted Player (Mateo Kovacic):
Born to Croatian parents in Linz, Austria, Mateo Kovacic spent seven years in the LASK Linz youth academy before joining Dinamo Zagreb, where he showed a great deal of potential shortly after being promoted to the senior squad.
The good return of 7 goals in 43 league appearances saw him secure a high-profile move to Inter Milan, where he acted as both holding midfielder and attacking midfielder, during the three years at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza. And despite not exactly impressing in Italy, Kovacic was purchased by mighty Real Madrid, where he has been ever since. The youngster is widely regarded as one of Croatia’s most talented footballers at the moment and he has represented the country on international stage since the age of 19.
In just three years he managed to make over 25 appearances for the national team, playing at the 2014 World Cup and Euro 2016 finals for Vatreni. Kovavic has yet to be given a real chance to impress at Real Madrid, but he has entire future ahead of him.
