Wolverhampton – Manchester United
29.08.2021
Wolverhampton are set to play Manchester United at the Molineux Stadium on Sunday in the English Premier League. United produced a disappointing performance against Southampton and will hope to return to winning ways. Wolverhampton come into this game on the back of a 4-0 win over Chris Hughton’s Nottingham Forest in the second round of the EFL Cup.
Wolverhampton have appointed a relatively unknown manager in Bruno Lage to replace fan favourite Nuno Espirito Santo. Man United’s fans, on the other hand, will be eager to see French centre-back Raphael Varane make his first appearance for the club, and the 28-year old could start against Wolves.
In 17 head-to-head encounters between the two sides, Manchester United hold the clear advantage. They have won 10 games, lost three and drawn four. The two clubs last faced each other earlier this year in the English Premier League, with Manchester United beating Wolverhampton Wanderers 2-1. Our prediction is for a win for Solskjaer’s men and under 2,5 goals.
This match will be played on 29/08/2021 at 18:30.
