The match between Manchester City and Wolves will close on Monday, January 14, the twenty-second round of the English Premier League in its 2018/2019 edition. The match will be played at Ethirad Stadium in Manchester, and is scheduled to start at 18h (Brasília time).
It will be City’s first game after the historic rout last Wednesday, January 9, in the match that opened the semi-final of the League Cup of England against Burton. Also playing at home, the Blues scored 9-0 in the Third Division team turning the game back, which is scheduled for January 23, in mere formality.At the meeting, coach Pep Guardiola has already used a number of reserve athletes. It should even deepen this strategy in the second game by putting in the field even players of the base teams to avoid wearing down their cast. After all, you have more important tasks to fulfill.The biggest of them, of course, is to keep chasing Liverpool, the leader of the English Premier League. City managed to reduce the gap to four points by defeating the Reds 2-1 in the last round classic. However, he saw that the rivals are not willing to take risks in this fight.In the English Cup, Liverpool virtually asked to be eliminated by putting Team B to face Wolves in their debut match. It was attended to. He lost by 2 to 1 and could focus on the Premier League and the European Champions League as City go through four contests.With 50 points (16 wins, two draws and three losses), Manchester City knows that there is no more room for slips in this scenario. Thus, Guardiola must put all the starters to face the Wolves on Monday. For this, it has practically the whole cast at disposal.
They are in the infirmary only the reserve keeper Claudio Bravo (still without performances in season 2018/2019 of the English Championship) and the defender Benjamin Mendy (nine games, without goal).
The Wolverhampton side knew how to take advantage of the gap left by Liverpool. Even because, in the English Championship, there is not much more to dispute. With 29 points (eight wins, five draws and eight losses), he started the race of the twenty-second day in ninth place.It’s much more than you could expect in your return season to the elite division of English football. With the threat of withdrawal in practice, he has the chance to try to shine in the FA Cup and manage the position in the middle of the table in the Premier League.As a visitor, the Wolves perform slightly better than the rivals. It is the eighth best in this area. Of the 30 points he played away from his dominions, he won 15 (four wins, three draws and three losses). He scored 11 goals and suffered ten.After a period of oscillation, it has resumed since December the game standard that showed at the beginning of the season. For the past eight games, he has won five, drawn one and suffered two defeats.
The duel involving the teams in the first round of the 2018/2019 season of the English Championship finished in equality of 1 to 1.
Knowing that there is no more space to lose points, especially in home clashes, City should maintain a game pattern of greater pressure for victory. There are players qualified for this. Thus, the prognosis in the victory of the owners of the house presents as the most appropriate guess for the meeting that concludes on Monday the twenty-second round of the 2018/2019 English League season.
