Manchester United vs Wolverhampton Wanderers Prediction
Manchester United, despite the criticism, are in a good position in the league table. A win in this game would see them jump to second, two points behind league leaders Liverpool.
The likes of Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford have been key players, while veteran striker Edinson Cavani has been in good form when called upon.
Wolverhampton Wanderers, on the other hand, are missing Raul Jimenez. The Mexico international's absence has shown a bluntness in attack, with youngster Fabio Silva still learning the ropes. Pedro Neto has impressed, while Daniel Podence and Adama Traore could prove to be crucial if they are to get a result.
Manchester United have managed to win games due to the brilliance of Bruno Fernandes, and the Portuguese star could prove to be the difference maker in this encounter. We expect Manchester United to narrowly win this game.
Prediction: Manchester United 1-0 Wolverhampton Wanderers
