Man City vs Wolves: Prediction, kick-off time, TV, live stream, team news, h2h results, odds
Man City look to take another step towards the Premier League title as they host Wolves on Saturday evening.
Pep Guardiola’s side are four wins away from lifting the trophy for the fourth season on the bounce, but they continue to be pushed by Arsenal heading into the final weeks of the campaign.
City could be four points behind the leaders by the time they take on Wolves, with Arsenal facing Bournemouth earlier in the day, but the champions remain in pole position in the title race.
Victories on Saturday, and then against Fulham, Tottenham and West Ham, will see City retain their domestic crown, regardless of what the Gunners can produce.
Wolves, who beat City at Molineux earlier this season, ended their seven-match winless run last time out with a narrow victory over Luton, and they are still firmly in the hunt for a top-half finish.

Man City vs Wolves prediction
Wolves did beat City in the reverse fixture earlier this season, but it is now almost five months since Guardiola’s side last tasted defeat in the Premier League.
They are on yet another relentless end-of-season run, even if they have not been at their best in recent weeks, and they are expected to ease to another efficient and likely uneventful victory.
Man City to win 2-0.
