Wolverhampton started the new era under Vitor Pereira with a convincing 0-3 win against Leicester. The Old Gold looked unusually rejuvenated, and they finally broke a four-match losing streak while moving two points away from the relegation zone.
Whether it’s a new manager or a phenomenon, improvement will be seen against Manchester United. The hosts have poor H2H records against the Red Devils in the last 12 matches (W1, D3, L8).
This season has been horrible for Wolverhampton in terms of conceded goals. At Molineux, they’ve already allowed 20 goals and only won a single match against struggling Southampton.
Matheus Cunha was again under the spotlight against Leicester. The Brazilian has nine goals in the Premier League and will look to improve his record.
Manchester United have had a mixed period recently, losing and winning four matches. Ruben Amorim confessed that “everything is so hard” for the team at the moment. Hardly anyone will disagree, as the Red Devils were thrashed 0-3 against Bournemouth in the previous round.
For the first time since 1989/90, Man United will finish Christmas in the bottom half of the table. Nevertheless, after beating Man City away 1-2, they have a chance to win the second away game in a row since February.
The biggest problem for the guests is the chaotic performance in the midfield. The match against Bournemouth was a demonstration of the absence of physical midfielders. Alongside other problems, Ruben Amorim will need to fix issues in the centre of the field.
Bet hereManchester have phenomenal H2H stats against Wolverhampton. They are currently on a four-match winning streak against the Old Gold while defeating their counterparts eight times in the past 10 fixtures.
Although both teams are struggling, we think that United have more resources to beat the opponents. Also, the Wolves are convenient rivals for the Red Devils, and we believe the guests will play as number one in this encounter.
Wolverhampton might have beaten Leicester, but they’ll now face a completely different team. We expect an intense game. It’ll be a close one, but eventually, the guests will grab a victory.
Our pick for the match would be – Manchester United to win.
Both Manchester and Wolverhampton have frailties in the defence. The hosts have the most goals conceded (40), while United has allowed 14 goals in the past six fixtures already.
Rasmus Højlund will likely feature from the first minute. The Danish forward has been one of the most prolific players for the Red Devils. Matheus Cunha and former Valencia winger Gonçalo Guedes will lead the way in Wolverhampton.
We think the Wolves will be energetic following their impressive victory against Leicester. Meanwhile, Manchester will need to bounce back after a horrific performance against Bournemouth.
Our second pick for this game would be for both teams to score.
