LINE-UPS

WOLVES:
HOW WE’LL SET UP
Guessing who partners Aymeric Laporte in central defence may have to wait until kick-off.
It will either be Fernandinho and Rodrigo – both have been mentioned as possibilities with Ruben Dias the latest defender to see his season end early.
It is likely Rodrigo will continue his role of anchoring the midfield and Ferna play in the back four.
Ilkay Gundogan and Kevin De Bruyne should complete the midfield trio, with Bernardo, Phil Foden and Raheem Sterling up front.
SEVEN MORE POINTS...
Seven points from a possible nine and City are champions.
If only it were that simple!
Wolves showed against Chelsea they resented comments in the media about their players being ‘on the beach’ - and understandably so.
Moreover, Wolves can still pip West Ham to a Europa Conference spot - so the hosts have plenty to play for.
But this is another game City cannot dare fail in.
Liverpool’s narrow win over Aston Villa means they have pulled level with the Blues at the top of the Premier League, though Jurgen Klopp’s men have played one game more.
It’s imperative City keep the advantage over Liverpool - imagine going into the last two games level and effectively having a two-game shoot out to decide the title on goal difference?
Injuries have piled up for Pep Guardiola and his defence will be a patched up unit who will have to be placed in cotton wool once tonight’s game is over.
But City know keeping the ball and pinning Wolves back is the best form of defence this evening while our attacking players need to be ruthless.
