Manchester City are hitting the road again this weekend as they continue their Premier League campaign.
After the international break, City will face Wolves at Molineux in their upcoming away match.
In their last game, the champions secured a 3-2 victory over Fulham at the Etihad Stadium, with Mateo Kovacic noting that Ederson’s saves were crucial in ensuring the win.
Manager Pep Guardiola is accustomed to seeing many of his players feature for their national teams during these breaks. However, City could use this to their advantage against Wolves this weekend.
With Brazilian players Andre and Joao Gomes playing for their national team, they will arrive back in England later than the rest of the squad. This could be a benefit for City, as Wolves may be missing two key players for the match.
Despite Wolves’ current position at the bottom of the league table, City are not taking Sunday’s match lightly. They suffered a defeat at Molineux last season, and pundits like Danny Murphy believe Wolves could surprise City again.
However, with Wolves potentially missing important players due to international duty, City could have an advantage going into the game, despite their own players being involved in the recent international break.
