Wolves vs Manchester United: Line-up, EPL prediction and result

Wolverhampton Epl Predictions

Latest EPL standings as well as fixtures and results are found below the predictions.

Manchester United go to Wolves in the final round of English Premier League fixtures on Sunday.

The Red Devils are nailed on for second place in the EPL table whatever happens at Molineux, with the hosts more than ready to consign a drab campaign to the history books.

It’s not been plain sailing for United in the closing weeks, tailing off once the game was up in their long-shot bid to reel in noisy neighbours and new champions Manchester City at the top of the standings.

Old Trafford reverses at the hands of top four-chasing Leicester and Liverpool were understandable enough, less so was Tuesday’s 1-1 draw with relegated Fulham.

But Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Co will reflect on a successful upturn in fortunes this season, with the Europa League final against Spanish side Villarreal in the offing.

Just don’t mention the club’s primary role in the botched bid to form a breakaway European Super League.

Expect mass changes to the starting line up with the continental showpiece looming, with the likes of Anthony Martial and Dan James edging closer to contention for the first time in weeks.

England defender Harry Maguire is injured, as is forgotten man Phil Jones, while midfield duo Scott McTominay and Fred are both doubtful.

Wolves never really looked like repeating last season’s seventh-placed finish, with a lacklustre campaign leaving them 12th at best – and 15th at worst if they lose here and other results go against them.

Nuno Espirito Santo has cut a frustrated figure in the Molineux dugout, with one win in the last five a fitting run of form on which to end.

Defeats at Tottenham and Everton bring them into their not-so-grand finale, as attention turns to a big summer of wheeling and dealing.

Raul Jimenez, Pedro Neto, Jonny and Daniel Podence are all done for the campaign, ruled out by injury for the visit of United.

Romain Saiss, Marcal, Willian Jose and Leander Dendoncker are among those pushing for one last chance to impress.
