Paul Merson has made his prediction for Saturday’s clash between Manchester City and Wolves at the Molineux Stadium.
Speaking to Sportskeeda, the well-known pundit was quizzed about his take on the contest.
As Manchester City prepare to lock horns with Wolves, Paul Merson has put forth his prediction ahead of the game.
Paul Merson now makes Manchester City vs Wolves prediction
While the treble-winners are coming off the back of a 1-0 defeat to Newcastle United in the Carabao Cup, Pep Guardiola seemed satisfied, lauding Oscar Bobb after the match.
In the grand scheme of things, Guardiola and Co. will not be too miffed by their loss as their eyes will be set on winning seven league games out of seven.
Now, Paul Merson has made his prediction as he believes Manchester City will beat Wolves 3-1 this weekend.
“Wolves were outstanding against Liverpool in the first half but got blown away after the interval. They have the personnel to cause a handful of problems, but Manchester City should win this one.”
Paul Merson added assessing how Manchester City played against Newcastle on Wednesday night in his analysis.
“Football is a funny old game, isn’t it? The Cityzens had 75% possession against Newcastle in the Carabao Cup but lost 1-0, while they’ve managed to win six out of six in the Premier League despite not being at their destructive best. Man City are making it ridiculously hard for the likes of Arsenal and Liverpool to mount a Premier League title challenge as they hardly drop any points.”
“I know it’s so early in the season but if Arsenal lose to Manchester City next weekend, they are out of the Premier League title race!”
Unsurprisingly, the Arsenal legend expects Manchester City to get a standard victory against Wolves in his prediction.
