Manchester City’s miserable start to 2026 cannot be considered a full-blown crisis yet, but that may change if they fall victim to improving Wolves . City have failed to win any of their four Premier League games this year and were outclassed by Manchester United last weekend to fall seven points behind leaders Arsenal .
The derby defeat was bad, but more concerning will be their 3-1 midweek Champions League loss at Norwegian underdogs Bodo/Glimt.
Manchester City vs Wolves Prediction – Premier League 25/26
However, we cannot envisage a similar outcome against Wolves, especially as new signing Marc Guehi could come in to shore up an injury-hit defence, and a City win with over 3.5 goals in total @ 13/10 is our first Manchester City vs Wolves prediction.

Manchester City vs Wolves Preview
Form Guides
Manchester City Form Guide
Although City have suffered several body blows since the turn of the year, they have shone in the cups, beating Exeter 10-1 and Newcastle 2-0, and they will hope to replicate those performances to boost their fading title challenge this weekend.
They could cut Arsenal’s lead to four points ahead of the Gunners ’ meeting with Manchester United on Sunday if they can see off rock-bottom Wolves the day before. We expect them to do that, with a Price Boost of City to win both halves @ 7/5, tempting when looking at the Manchester City vs Wolves odds.
Erling Haaland has only scored once in his last eight games, but that poor return won’t last long, and we think Wolves could be in the firing line. The Norway star netted twice at Molineux in a 4-0 win on the opening day of the season and is 6/4 to do the same in the return meeting.
Wolves Form Guide
With a 14-point gap to 17th place, Wolves still look destined for the Championship , but they have at least started to make life difficult for opponents.
Since suffering a 12th successive loss in all competitions at Liverpool on December 27, Rob Edwards’ men have gone five games unbeaten, beating West Ham 3-0 and Shrewsbury 6-1 while drawing against Manchester United, Everton and Newcastle .
It is an impressive turnaround for a team which looked set to go down as the worst in Premier League history, and they can make another big statement at the Etihad.
They are 5/1 to snatch a point , although we reckon a better option might be a home win and both teams to score @ 8/5, with Wolves looking to take advantage of City’s defensive issues, and that completes our Manchester City vs Wolves betting tips.
