The English Premier League has four starting positions for the UEFA Champions League. However, at least six teams have targeted qualification for the premier class. Long faces and disappointments are inevitable for many fans.

Manchester United vs Wolverhampton Betting Odds and Predictions

A big disappointment this season are the Red Devils by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who are already six points behind in fourth place. This weekend there is a duel between the two Europa League starters Manchester United and Wolverhampton in Old Trafford Stadium.

This game is by no means a sure-fire success for the home side. After all, the “Wolves” are now among the strongest teams in the Premier League and can convert these good performances into points. After 24 rounds, the Wolves have as many counters on the credit side as Manchester United, but have a poorer goal difference.

Nevertheless, the bookmakers have a clear favorite in the direct duel and offer odds of around 2.20 for the home side between Manchester United and Wolverhampton.

Manchester United – Statistics & current form

The normal football mechanisms mean that if the coach fails, the coach is identified as the culprit and the fans then loudly demand a new strong man. At Manchester United, however, the clocks tick a little differently. Ex-professional Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is not necessarily successful. Since he was introduced as head coach, he has lost more games in the Premier League (twelve) than he could win (eleven).

Still, fans at Old Trafford continue to cheer him on. The culprit for her is namely CEO Ed Woodward, who has spent millions of euros in new players without a concept in recent years. The frustration of the fans went so far that Woodward was now threatened at his property. Manchester United announced life sentences for the perpetrators.

Meanwhile, the great shopping tour of the Red Devils continued and with the Portuguese Bruno Fernandes a new midfielder was signed for 55 million euros. The national player is currently the most expensive winter transfer and should further boost the offensive game.

This is sorely necessary, because Manchester United has been without their own goal seven times in the current season and has therefore already set the value from the previous year. Recently there were two 2-0 defeats. In the long history of the club, there were only three zero defeats in a row in the Premier League under Louis van Gaal in 2015.

Hope gives the Red Devils a strong “February record” in the Premier League for Saturday. Of the last 60 games played in the shortest month of the year, Manchester United have lost just two games (42 wins, 16 draws).

The last defeat in February dates from 2008 when there was nothing to be won against the Citizens in the derby. In view of these impressive figures in February, at least the tip for a point win by the home side between Manchester United and Wolverhampton seems promising.

Probable line-up of Manchester United:
➤ De Gea – Shaw, Maguire, Lindelöf – Williams, Fred, Matic, Wan-Bissaka – Mata – James, Martial

Manchester United’s last matches:

⚽️ 01/29/2020 – Manchester City vs. Manchester United 0-1 (League Cup)
⚽️ 01/26/2020 – Tranmere vs. Manchester United 0: 6 (FA Cup)
⚽️ 01/22/2020 – Manchester United vs. Burnley 0-2 (Premier League)
⚽️ 01/19/2020 – Liverpool vs. Manchester United 2-0 (Premier League)
⚽️ Jan 15, 2020 – Manchester United vs. Wolverhampton 1-0 (FA Cup)

Wolverhampton – Statistics & current form

The second year after an ascent is often described as the most difficult. With the Wolverhampton Wanderers, it is no surprise that this statement is incorrect. With an investor in the back and super advisor Jorge Mendes on board, the club has clear ideas and is well on the way to establishing itself as an absolute top team in the Premier League.

Nuno Espirito Santo has a clear idea of ​​how his team should play. He has immense trust in his regular players and rotates extremely little compared to his coaching colleagues.

This fact could also be one of the main reasons why the Wolves’ shape curve has been falling in recent weeks. After the Europa League starter had only suffered three defeats in 19 games, there were also three bankruptcies in the recent five league games.

For Wolverhampton, the season started in the first Europa League qualifying round and the Espirito Santo team had a lot of games in their legs. The guest appearance at Old Trafford will be the 41st competitive game this season. Certain signs of wear are by no means a surprise. Especially since the Wolves always have to show great morality.

In no less than 17 of the 24 league games, the team went 0: 1 behind, but still managed to collect 18 points – negative and best in the Premier League at the same time.

Before the blast duel at Old Trafford, the Wolves had been without play for more than a week and were able to recharge the battery. The playful quality is definitely there to pose problems for the weakening Red Devils.

Between Manchester United and Wolverhampton, the prediction for goals from both teams seems very promising. In eight of the last nine Premier League players in the Wolves, this was the right choice.

Probable line-up of Wolverhampton:
➤ Rui Patricio – Dendoncker, Coady, Saiss – Jonny Otto, Neves, Moutinho, Doherty – Neto, Jimenez, Traore

Last games from Wolverhampton:

⚽️ 01/23/2020 – Wolverhampton vs. Liverpool 1: 2 (Premier League)
⚽️ 01/18/2020 – Southampton vs. Wolverhampton 2: 3 (Premier League)
⚽️ Jan 15, 2020 – Manchester United vs. Wolverhampton 1-0 (FA Cup)
⚽️ 01/11/2020 – Wolverhampton vs. Newcastle 1-1 (Premier League)
⚽️ 01/04/2020 – Wolverhampton vs. Manchester United 0-0 (FA Cup)

Manchester United vs Wolverhampton Direct comparison & statistics highlights

A trip to Old Trafford has not been a success for the Wolves in recent years. Forty years ago, in February 1980, Wolverhampton celebrated their last major league away win at Old Trafford. Since then there have been eleven home games for the Red Devils, of which the favorite won nine. Interesting statistics – since the defeat 40 years ago, Manchester United have been behind none of these eleven home games.

However, the Wolves have scored in the last three Premier League games against the Red Devils (two draws, one win). The duel on late Saturday afternoon will be the fourth duel in the current season.

In the FA Cup, Manchester United won 1-0 thanks to a Mata goal. In the three previous duels between Manchester United and Wolverhampton, the bet on the Under 2.5 was the right choice.

Manchester United vs Wolverhampton Betting Odds and Predictions

Can the Red Devils finally cheer in the league again after the insignificant derby victory? 34 points after 24 games mean the worst value since 1989/90 and leave the Champions League far away.

A victory must be won against the physically battered Wolves in order not to lose sight of the blues for good. The strong-playing guests are by no means to be underestimated and that is why we refrain from a prediction on the three-way market between Manchester United and Wolverhampton.

Key Facts – Manchester United vs Wolverhampton tips

🔻 34 points after 24 games – the last time the Red Devils were even worse in 1989/90
🔻 The three previous duels all ended with an under 2.5
🔻 The tiredness is noticeable – competitive game number 41 for the Wolves this season

Our choice ultimately falls on a bet that at first glance seems illogical. In the three previous season duels, there have never been more than two hits to be seen; nevertheless we recommend this tip between Manchester United and Wolverhampton with a stake of four units.

The Wolves are rested after a one-week break and have the quality to meet at any time. Diogo Jota also recently made his comeback and could possibly be an issue for the starting eleven again.

Manchester United haven’t scored in the last two league games, but they have fueled their confidence in the cup competitions. Although the victory over the Citizens was worthless in the final accounts, it created a positive mood.

Redress is now in the league and goals are needed – we would have considered the question of the over / under as a 50/50 matter and therefore allude to the value of the over 2.5 with moderate effort.

🔺 Competition: Premier League
🔺 Date: 01.02.2020
🔺 Betting Prediction: over 2.5 goals
🔺 Betting Odds: 2.23
🔺 Stake: 5/10 units
