The opening match of the 35th round of the Premier League kicks off tonight at 9 PM at the Etihad, promising an extraordinary spectacle. Manchester City is riding a four-game winning streak and has gone eight matches without defeat.
As for Wolverhampton, the Wolves have secured six victories in their last seven games, transforming from relegation threats to a team in a “safe haven” position under Vitor Pereira’s management.
With 41 points, the Wolves have no pressure, while the “Citizens” are in critical need of points in their Champions League quest, closely chased by Chelsea and Nottingham Forest, who sit just a point behind in fifth and sixth places.
Brentford’s recent away victory against Nottingham Forest serves as a reminder that every team in the Premier League gives their all, regardless of the significance of the match’s outcome.
Additionally, an intriguing tradition adds to the excitement—Manchester City has won its last seven encounters on Fridays, with their last defeat occurring against the Wolves on December 27, 2019, when Wolves triumphed 3-2.
