Wolves host Manchester United at Molineux on Monday in what promises to be a clash of extremes. On one side, bottom‑placed Wolves - languishing on just 2 points after 14 games - are desperate for a turn around. On the other, United arrive with more breathing room, but inconsistencies of their own.

Premier League
Historically, Manchester United hold the upper hand: across 28 meetings since 2003, United have won 17 times, Wolves 7 times, with 4 draws. Despite Wolves’ poor league form this season, they claimed back-to-back wins against Manchester United in the 2024/25 season. Nonetheless, apart from these two defeats, United have prevailed against Wolves at Molineux in four of their last five head-to-head meetings.
Wolves team overview
For Wolves, the 2025/26 season has been a disaster. They sit 20th with only 2 points from 14 games, having drawn twice and lost 12 - the joint worst start in Premier League history at this stage. Their goal difference stands at -22, a glaring indicator of defensive frailty and attacking struggles. They are currently enduring a seven-game losing streak in the Premier League, although the margins of defeat have slightly improved - their last two league losses were both 0-1, to Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest. Their home form has also been abysmal, with just one point from a possible 21 since the start of the season.

Manchester United team overview
Manchester United, by contrast, are in mid-table contention, but a couple of wins could see them back in the race for next season’s Champions League qualification. Setting aside a rather unexpected 1-0 defeat against a ten-man Everton a couple of weeks ago, United have stabilised their league form - that defeat being their only league loss since the start of October. During this run of eight matches, Erik ten Hag’s men have recorded four wins, three draws, and just one loss. Their recent away form has also been solid, with two wins and two draws.

Prediction
Given Wolves’ catastrophic form - just 2 points from 14, a -22 goal difference, ongoing winless streaks - and United’s somewhat better balance of attack and defense, this match looks heavily tilted towards the visitors. We predict a win for Manchester United.
Prediction: Manchester United to Win.
Three reasons we expect Manchester United
- Wolves are still winless this Premier League season (D2 L12).
- Wolves have lost eight consecutive matches across all competitions.
- Manchester United are undefeated in four successive Premier League away matches (W2 D2).
