Tuesday evening at 19:45, Wolverhampton receives Manchester United‘s visit to the 33rd round of the Premier League. “Wolves” have a good morale after a dream season, which finds them in the English Cup semifinals, but also favorites in the 7th place in the championship.
Wolverhampton made Manchester United rocks this season. After resisting a 1-1 draw on Old Trafford, Nuno Santo’s “wolves” shot in the English Cup, where they eliminated a strong formation lined up by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, scoring 2-1 at home. In fact, Wolves boasts excellent results in front of this season’s giants, managing a draw with Manchester City, Chelsea or Arsenal, but also a victory for Liverpool in the FA Cup. With a batch of talent and creativity, the Molineux band will give a strong replica to Manchester United, a qualifying band in the UCL.
In the standings, United is on the 4th place (golaveraj 60-41), but can climb the podium Tuesday evening, after Tottenham made a wrong step in the derby with Liverpool (1-2). Wolverhampton is ranked 7th (38-38 golaver) and has only one success in the last five stages, but has faced a very difficult schedule. Successes with Cardiff (2-0) and Manchester United (2-1 in the Cup) were also frayed against Huddersfield (0-1) and Burnley (0-2) plus a draw on Stamford Bridge (1 -1 with Chelsea).
Manchester United comes after a success with Watford (2-1) in the weekend, who forgot the defeats with Arsenal (0-2) and Wolves (1-2). Under the command of Solskjaer, the “devils” evolve to a higher level and have enough quality to win the Molineux. Manchester United has 9 successes in 16 away games this season, but “wolves” have lost only 5 matches out of the 15 played in this championship.
Interestingly, 5 of the previous six direct duels in the championship have scored at least three goals and the offensive qualities of the two bands recommend a new spectacular match. Manchester United has won in the previous three rounds of the Wolves Championship with 5-0, 1-0 and 3-0, and Solskjaer will use a first “11” offensive, even if the draw would climb the guests third position. There are no bothers in the Wolverhampton camp, while United comes without Darmian, Sanchez and Valencia.
