Initial Observations
With a leg injury, Marcus Rashford, the top scorer for Manchester United, is “more than doubtful” to play against Wolves, according to manager Erik Ten Hag. Raphael Varane, a defender, makes a welcome comeback after missing a month due to an ankle injury. Tom Heaton, Phil Jones, Donny van de Beek, Scott McTominay, and Lisandro Martinez are still absent. Sasa Kalajdzic and Chiquinho remain long-term absentees, so the Wolves have no new injury concerns. After securing the club’s survival was secured, head coach July Lopetegui vowed to give his periphery players more playing time in their final three games.
In their last four home top-flight games against Wolves, Manchester United have only won one, drawn two, and lost one. Last year, Wolves defeated United 1-0 thanks to a late strike from Joao Moutinho, snapping a 13-match losing streak. The last four Premier League matches have been won by the visiting team, with United collecting three of those triumphs at Molineux.
