The Premier League is back with a full set of midweek fixtures as we return to regularly scheduled programming to end the chaotic month of January. There are so many things up in the air at both ends of the table but hopefully, in the weeks ahead, we’ll start to get a bit more clarity. Today, we’ll be taking a look at what should be a fun clash between Wolverhampton Wanderers and Manchester United.
Wolves Form GuideWolverhampton Wanderers are looking really good right now and Gary O’Neil deserves a lot of plaudits for what he’s been able to do at the club. When he came in, they were seen as one of the favourites to go down - but at this point, their focus is on the top half as opposed to the bottom three. With a decent cup run to go alongside that, the kings of the Black Country are sitting pretty.
After earning wins over Brentford and Everton, Wolves drew with the Bees in their FA Cup third round tie before beating them in the replay. They went on to earn a point against Brighton before beating bitter rivals West Brom 2-0 in the fourth round.
Manchester United Form GuideManchester United supporters have spent the last decade experiencing brief moments of joy, but for the most part, their inconsistency has really hurt them on the pitch. Erik ten Hag is the latest manager to try and make a difference at Old Trafford, but there are still far more questions than answers for the Red Devils as we approach a critical few months for them.
Following a defeat to West Ham, United earned a valiant comeback win over Aston Villa - only to lose 2-1 to Nottingham Forest just four days later. They proceeded to beat Wigan and Newport in the FA Cup with a 2-2 draw against Tottenham sandwiched in between.
Match PredictionThe atmosphere is bound to be rocking at Molineux as they attempt to protect their strong unbeaten run against a questionable United side. We expect this one to be full of tense moments, with our official prediction for the game being a draw.
