After a night of drama and a stunning comeback in Europe, normalcy returns at Manchester United as focus shifts to the Premier League. The Red Devils are set to host Wolverhampton Wanderers as the league enters the 33rd round. For both sides, this has been a tough season, at least in the Premier League. United arrive for this match sitting 14th, just two places ahead of Wolves, who have 35 points, three less than their hosts’ tally. Below we have the preview and a prediction for this match.
Manchester United’s domestic season hasn’t left much joy for their fans. The fact that they are seven points below mid-table says it all. It is little wonder the Old Trafford outfit is putting a lot more energy into Europe.
Wolverhampton Wanderers, on the other hand, are in the fight for survival. With four more points, their survival will be guaranteed. They beat United in the reverse fixture, but can Wolves complete a double?

Manchester United - Wolves: Form Analysis
A late comeback at home against Olympique Lyon saw Manchester United post a 5-4 win on Thursday and advance in the Europa League. That has definitely lifted the mood in the team, and manager Ruben Amorim will for sure be looking to tap into the high spirits.
The Old Trafford faithful could do with that, after their last three league games ended winless, with two defeats. Manchester United have two wins only in their last nine home matches in the league.
In that run, they suffered five defeats, but they haven't lost any of the last three. What has really hurt the Red Devils this season is inconsistency. They haven't managed consecutive league wins this season.
Wolves beat Manchester United 2-0 in the reverse fixture on Boxing Day.
Wolverhampton Wanderers have spent the better part of the season looking over their shoulder. That is about to end, thanks to a superb run in recent matches.
The visitors come into this game unbeaten in five matches. They have four straight wins coming into this match. The latest of them was against the team right above them, Tottenham Hotspur, whom they beat 4-2.
What has really worked for Wolves this season is that they haven't dropped too many points against teams around them. In their last two away trips, for example, they beat Southampton and Ipswich Town.

Manchester United & Wolves Squad Analysis
In the recent weeks, the biggest addition to the Manchester United injury list has been Joshua Zirkzee. The Dutch international is scheduled to miss the remainder of the season with a hamstring injury he suffered during the team’s defeat to Newcastle United.
Zirkzee, who has had some stellar moments at United, will particularly be missed for his contributions in attack. He has so far scored three times and provided one assist.
As Zirkzee takes his break, Bruno Fernandes will be looked upon for both goals and leadership. It isn’t just for his eight goals and nine assists; the midfielder has been outstanding all-round for United this season.
Matheus Cunha scored in the reverse meeting with Manchester United.
Wolverhampton’s huge escape act has been crafted by the immense contribution of Brazilian forward Matheus Cunha. The striker has been a constant goal threat for Wolves, and he comes into this match having had 18 goal contributions.
He scored 14 times, and though his team is struggling, he sits well within the leading scorers in the league. Jorgen Strand Larsen is his partner in crime, coming up with 12 goals scored and two assists provided.
The two are fit, and starting upfront against a depleted Manchester United spells trouble for the hosts.

Our Manchester United vs Wolves Prediction
Manchester United seem to have shifted their major focus to the Europa League. To be fair to them, there’s really nothing much they can gain in the league. As they are coming from a grueling Europa League game that went to 120 minutes, expect a rotation.
This will definitely make the team weaker. Flipped on the other side, that is just how Wolves want them. Weaker. The visitors carry a four-game winning run and will hope to add to it as they eye survival. With that in mind, our prediction for Manchester United v Wolverhampton Wanderers is that Wolves wins the match.
Manchester United vs Wolves - Other Interesting Predictions
Both teams to score
Wolves have put an emphasis on scoring to win matches but haven't really been strong defensively in their recent matches. They rarely go without conceding. It is a similar case at United, though the hosts’ situation is exacerbated by injuries. With that, our second prediction for this match is for both teams to score.
