Manchester City will look to consolidate their status as league leaders when they host Wolves at Etihad on Saturday.

Man City will look to potentially set themselves apart from the rest of their Premier League title rivals when they host Wolves at Etihad Stadium in Saturday's encounter. The Citizens saw their seven-game unbeaten run come to an abrupt end in midweek when they took on RB Leipzig in their final group game of this season's UEFA Champions League and are looking to make amends as swiftly as possible. While the defeat to the German club was disheartening, Pep Guardiola's men has been in excellent form in the league recently, winning five of their past six games since their shock defeat to Crystal Palace in November.

On the contrary, Wolves have not really lived up to the standard they have been known for in recent years but will still be out to prove a point against the league's defending champions. The Molineux outfit have shown promising signs but are yet to hit the griund running, and will approach Saturday clash with City on the back of a disappointing 1-0 defeat to Liverpool. Having held the Reds throughout the proceeding, a late goal by substitute Divock Origi was enough to undo the hardwork of Bruno Lage's men who now sit eight on the league log.

Head to head record

Between 2003 and 2020, Man City and Wolves have met 18 times across all comepitions. The former have emerged as winners on 10 separate occasions while the latter have managed six, with the remaining three games ending in draws. Last season, City secured back to back wins over Wolves after going on a three-game winless run against the visitors.

Manchester City has won 31 of their 39 Premier League games this season (D2 L6), with just Liverpool (33) and Chelsea (32) winning most in a single calendar year in English top-flight history.
