Manchester City's hopes of winning the Premier League title for the fourth successive time inch closer as they welcome Wolverhampton Wanderers to the Etihad.
The Sky Blues would be wary of avoiding any last minute slip-ups if they want to get their hands on the prestigious piece of silverware once again. With Arsenal and City tipped to fight for the crown until the last minute of the 2023/24 PL campaign, Pep Guardiola would be hoping to see another illustrious performance from his side at the Etihad.
Wolves, on the other hand, defeated Guardiola's men when the two sides clashed at the Molineux Stadium. The visitors are on a shambolic run of form in the league though with three defeats in their previous five outings as they look to turn around their fortunes against City.

Manchester City will bank on Stefan Ortega to deputise between the sticks in Ederson's absence with the Brazilian shot-stopper picking up a shoulder injury against Forest last weekend.
