Manchester City Vs Wolves: Talking Tactics
Pep Guardiola would opt for the 4-3-3 formation with Manuel Akanji continuing in the backline and Phil Foden returning to the left-wing position in the frontline. Phil Foden would make his return to the front three as he plays from the start.
Bruno Lage will deploy his team in a 4-3-3 formation of his own as Jose Sa continues in between the sticks while Daniel Podence and Pedro Neto provide support to Hwang Hee-chan from the wide areas in the final third.
Team News
Manchester City
The Mancunian giants will remain without the long-term absentees, Kyle Walker and Aymeric Laporte due to injury setbacks. The rest of the team remains fit for selection, so Riyad Mahrez and Julian Alvarez are up for contention in the right-wing spot but the Spanish tactician could make use of Bernardo Silva’s versatility to feature in the wide area.
Manchester City Predicted XI
Ederson; Stones, Akanji, Dias, Cancelo; Gundogan, Rodri, De Bruyne; Silva, Haaland, Foden
Wolverhampton Wanderers
Wolves will remain without Kalajdzic and Chiquinho as both of them spend a long spell out of action due to the former recovering from an ACL injury while the latter underwent a knee surgery and is facing several months on the sidelines. Jimenez was a notable absentee from the showdown with Southampton and still remains doubtful to start.
Wolverhampton Wanderers Predicted XI
Sa; Jonny, Kilman, Collins, Ait-Nouri; Nunes, Neves, Moutinho; Neto, Hwang, Podence
