Wolverhampton VS Manchester United - Prediction

After a long break, Manchester United are ready to be back in Premier League action when they visit Molineux Stadium tonight to play against Wolverhampton Wanderers. This season has been very difficult for the Red Devils, as they stand at 9th with 32 points. However, Man United will face off the Wolves off the back of a win in the FA Cup against Newport County by a 4-2 margin. On the other hand, Wolverhampton Wanderers suffered a lot at the beginning of the season, but they are now recovering. The Wolves had won three matches in a row in the EPL before they tied a goalless match against Brighton in their most recent league game. However, the Wolves are all set to face off against Manchester United, aiming to continue their unbeaten run in the EPL. Besides, Manchester United are more than desperate to get back on the winning track with tonight's highly anticipated match.

Prediction: Man United 2-1 Wolves

Although Manchester United have been struggling this season, the return of Casemiro and Lisandro Martinez would be a massive boost when they play against Wolverhampton tonight. However, the Wolves will have the home advantage, but it will be difficult to beat Manchester United. Man United started brilliantly against Newport County, scoring two goals in just 15 minutes. But due to their poor defensive work, they gave up the lead. Therefore, the Red Devils should improve their defensive prowess to win against the Wolves.
