Manchester City vs Wolverhampton Prediction: How will Julen Lopetegui's charges surprise the Citizens?

On Sunday, January 22, there will be a meeting between Man City and Wolverhampton. Julen Lopetegui will try to upset his compatriot Pep Guardiola. Can the Wolves create a sensation?

Man City made amends for their loss to Manchester United in the Manchester derby with a 4-2 comeback against Tottenham Hotspur. The Citizens were 0:2 up after the first half but quickly scored in the second half. So, the gap with Arsenal is five points again. However, the Gunners have a game in hand. But Ruben Dias, the defense leader, has returned to the leading group.

Wolverhampton is finally out of the relegation zone thanks to a 1:0 win over West Ham. Wolves immediately climbed to 16th place in the standings. The gap from the bottom three is two points. But this midweek, they could not beat Liverpool in the replay of the FA Cup, losing to the Reds on their field with the score of 0:1. Therefore, the functional state of the base players is unlikely to be optimal. And most likely see Wolves' newcomer Pablo Sarabia, who moved from PSG for 5 million euros.

We are confident that Wolverhampton will traditionally be an uncomfortable and prickly team for the English team. Moreover, as Liverpool saw in the cup clash, Julen Lopetegui is not a bad player. Consequently, we assume that Wolverhampton will play reliable soccer to take at least one point.
