BTTS landed in the reverse fixture back when Gary O’Neil was in charge of the Wanderers, as City came from a goal behind to wun 2-1 at Molineux.

A lot has changed since then for both of these sides, but Wolves’ recent impressive form, in particular, should give them opportunities to find the back of the net here. Vitor Pereira's side have scored in 13 successive games coming into this fixture, which is indicative of their impressive form lately, which has seen them leave the relegation battle far in the distance.

Both sides enter this game in impressive form, which suggests that this should be a game that produces chances at both ends. City still have work to do to qualify for the Champions League but Wolves aren’t a side that will simply roll over and let them have the three points, they’ll be eager to keep their six-game winning streak going which is the best run of any team in Europe’s top five leagues at the moment.

Cunha has had 40 shots on target across his 29 Premier League appearances this season (1.54 per 90). He’s been Wolves’ star man and will no doubt want to crown his final few games for the club with some standout performances, aware that clubs will be looking at him now with the summer transfer window just around the corner.

He’s found the target in each of his last 10 Premier League games, scoring three goals and providing two assists across this period, which suggests that he’s got quite a bit of momentum coming into this game, which is the type of game that Cunha relishes. 

Wolves are averaging 4.3 shots on target per game in the Premier League this season and their system can cause Manchester City problems.

Just as Cunha catches the eye for his ability, he can also grab your attention for being a bit reckless. It’s something that’s been in his game since he arrived at Wolves, and mirrors their overall aggression, which has been amplified under Vitor Pereira. 

He’s committed 39 fouls across his 29 Premier League appearances this season (1.50 per 90) and now operates in a role where he’ll contest plenty of duels. He’ll be directly up against the City midfield, with which he contested 13 duels in the game at Molineux.

Wolves are averaging 13.1 fouls committed per game in the Premier League this season, only Bournemouth (13.5) are bringing down the opposition more frequently than Vitor Pereira’s men, and they shouldn’t be afraid to employ this high octane approach given the form they carry into this game. 

There is a notable disparity between the card numbers of these two sides in the Premier League this season. Wolves have picked up 70 yellow cards across their 34 games in the Premier League this season (2.05 per game) while Manchester City have collected 56 cautions across the same number of games (1.64 per game).

Wolves can be quite an aggressive side without the ball, as displayed by their foul numbers this season (13.1 per game), and this could be reflected on Friday evening, seeing as Manchester City will have most of the ball. Wolves’ foul numbers actually suggest that their card count should be a bit higher this term, for comparison, Bournemouth have received 18 more cards than the Wanderers despite having a similar foul average.

Wolves picked up three yellow cards to Manchester City’s one in the reverse fixture. Wolves only committed eight fouls in that game but still managed to pick up more cautions than Pep Guardiola’s side.

Marmoush registered his first assist for Manchester City in their 2-0 win over Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup semi-final, taking his tally to eight goal contributions across his 17 appearances for Manchester City this season.

These are steady numbers for a player who only joined up with the squad in January and is playing more frequently than he probably thought he would, due to Erling Haaland’s injury.

Marmoush has registered a goal contribution in two of his last five games across all competitions and has a particular knack for scoring at the Etihad; all six of his Premier League goals for Manchester City have come there.

Doherty has been playing on the right side of a back three for Wolves in recent weeks and has been quite effective in the role. It puts him right in the danger zone when playing Manchester City, as he’ll have to contend with either Jeremy Doku or Jack Grealish on that, side but also Omar Marmoush drifting into channels.

Doherty has picked up six yellow cards across his 27 Premier League appearances this season, only three players in the Wolves squad have picked up more cautions than the 33-year-old this term. He’s averaging 0.85 fouls committed per 90 in the league, but the Manchester City attackers should be able to force a rise in that metric.

There were 3+ goals in the earlier meeting this term. Manchester City have seen 3+ goals in their two most recent games at the Etihad, against Crystal Palace and Aston Villa, while Wolves have seen over this line in three of their last five Premier League outings.

City need the points for Champions League qualification but may have to breach the Wolves backline more than once here to secure the three points, seeing as Wolves have scored in each of their last 13 games across all competitions.

City have seen 61 goals across their 17 home games in the Premier League this season (3.58 per game) while Wolves have seen 57 goals across their 17 away trips this term (3.35 per game).

Ederson has made 2.29 saves per 90 in the Premier League this season. Wolves will offer an attacking threat here, their system is one that can exploit the City approach, with Pep Guardiola’s side still not entirely convincing at the back.

Wolves have drawn 2+ saves from the opposition keeper in three of their last five Premier League matches, and can look to match their average of 4.3 shots on target per game in the Premier League this season, building on the form they’ve established under the tutelage of Vitor Pereira.
