The Premier League returns for another weekend of action up and down the country. The top flight of English football is as competitive as it has ever been, with nobody really knowing what direction most of the 20 clubs will go in this season. Today, we’ll be previewing what should be a fascinating encounter between Manchester City and Nottingham Forest.
Wolves Form GuideWhile there have been a few positive signs for Wolverhampton Wanderers up to this point in the campaign, there’s no denying that there are still more questions than answers. Nobody is clear as to whether or not Gary O’Neil is going to work as a long-term managerial appointment, but when you take a look at their squad, it certainly feels like they should be aiming higher than they currently are.
September, to put it bluntly, has been a car crash for Wolves. They began with defeats to Crystal Palace and Liverpool either side of the international break, drew 1-1 with Luton away from home, and lost 3-2 to Championship side Ipswich in the League Cup.
Manchester City Form GuideManchester City, as we all know, are coming off the back of a treble-winning season. The aim is to try and repeat that achievement and so far, they’ve done an excellent job of leading people to believe that’s exactly what is going to happen. Pep Guardiola is a mastermind and at the Etihad, you’d have to imagine the current feeling is that they’re untouchable on the pitch.
The month of September has gone pretty smoothly thus far. Manchester City have rattled off four straight wins over Fulham, West Ham, Red Star Belgrade and Nottingham Forest, with the aggregate score in that time being a whopping 13-3.
Match PredictionWolves have really been showing up for games against the bigger teams in the league so far this season but unfortunately, they haven’t picked up the results to show for it. Between that and the form of the visitors, we have to predict a Manchester City win in this one.
