Manchester City travels to Wolverhampton for the seventh day of the Premier League (kick-off 4 p.m., match to be followed live on FM). With six victories in as many championship matches, the Citizens are leaders of PL and want to continue their momentum against the Wolves who are hanging around at the end of the standings, 16th, with only four points collected out of eighteen possible.
For this meeting, Pep Guardiola, deprived of Rodri (suspended) and De Bruyne, Bernardo Silva and Stones (injured), finds a more classic eleven after having rotated in the League Cup this week at Newcastle (0-1). Walker and Dias are back on defense. In the middle, Kovacic continues with Nunes who faces his former club. Up front, Grealish starts on the bench. Doku and Foden will lead the sides while Alvarez will play in support of Haaland. On the Wolves side, Gary O’Neil opts for a 3-4-3 with Lemina in the middle. Ait Nouri and Semedo will evolve as pistons while Cunha will be supported by Neto and Hwang up front.
The official compositions:
Wolves: Sa – Dawson, Kilman, Toti – Semedo, Lemina, Joao Gomes, Ait Nouri – Neto, Cunha, Hwang.
Manchester City: Ederson – Walker, Akanji, Dias, Ake – Kovacic, Nunes – Foden, Alvarez, Doku – Haaland.
