Wolverhampton Wanderers will lock horns with Manchester City in their Premier League opening clash on Saturday (August 16). The game will be played at Molineux Stadium in Wolverhampton, West Midlands, England.
Last season proved to be challenging for Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City, who settled for third place behind Liverpool and Arsenal, a stark contrast to their previous treble-winning dominance. The summer transfer window saw a significant squad change, with star players like Kevin De Bruyne, Kyle Walker, and Jack Grealish leaving the club, while fresh faces Rayan Ait-Nouri, Rayan Cherki, Tijjani Reijnders, and goalkeeper James Trafford were added to the team.
On the other hand, the Wolves limped to a 16th-place finish last season. Historically, they have struggled against Man City, losing nine of their last 10 league meetings, but they will be geared up to defy the odds and make a statement in the upcoming curtain-raiser.
Here are all the details about the upcoming Premier League match between Wolverhampton Wanderers and Manchester City.
