Wolves vs Man Utd team news

Wolves

Wolves will have been the happier of the two clubs at the final whistle of their game against Brighton at the American Express Stadium. Neither side could find a way to break the deadlock during the ninety minutes and the game ended in a goalless draw, a result that put Wolves on twenty-nine points and eleventh in the table.

Joao Gomes is suspended and Boubacar Traore is at AFCON 2023, while Pablo Sarabia and Hee-Chan Hwang are both injury concerns ahead of the United game.

Predicted Lineup: Sá (GK), Dawson, Doherty, Semedo, Kilman, T. Gomes, Sarabia, Lemina, Doyle, Neto & Cunha

Man Utd

Man Utd took the lead twice at home to Tottenham but had to settle for a share of the spoils in the end. Rasmus Hojlund scored the first goal of the game in the third minute, but Tottenham equalised soon after. Marcus Rashford gave the home side the lead heading into the break but Spurs scored in the first minute of the second half and the game ended in a 2-2  draw.

Sofyan Amrabat is away with Morocco at the Africa Cup of Nations, while Anthony Martial, Tyrell Malacia, Mason Mount, Victor Lindelof and Marcus Rashford are all doubts due to injury or illness.

Predicted Lineup: Onana (GK), Martínez, Varane, Dalot, Wan-Bissaka, Eriksen, Fernandes, Mainoo, Antony, Garnacho & Højlund

Player to Watch: Matheus Cunha

Matheus Cunha caused the Man Utd defence a lot of problems when these two sides met for their reverse league fixture at Old Trafford and we're backing the Brazilian to impress again on Thursday night.

Cunha cost a large amount of money but he has started to repay that on the pitch with six goals and five assists in the Premier League this season. The former Atletico Madrid man is in good form right now with four goals in his last nine appearances across all competitions and will fancy his chances against a leaky Man Utd defence.
