Wolverhampton Form
Man United Form
Wolves host Man United at Molineux on Monday night with an 8pm kick-off. Wolves are stuck at the bottom right now, while United sit 8th after a frustrating draw with West Ham. So let’s run through the form, the recent meetings, and the latest team news to give you our Wolves vs Manchester United predictions.
Wolves walk into this one with yet another headache. Joao Gomes is suspended after picking up his fifth booking of the campaign. He joins Daniel Bentley, Rodrigo Gomes, Leon Chiwome, and Fernando Lopez on the treatment table. It’s a long list for a side that desperately needs stability. To make things trickier, there are doubts hanging over Marshall Munetsi and Ladislav Krejci, so they’ll be sweating on late fitness checks.
For United, the picture is slightly less chaotic but still far from perfect. Matthijs de Ligt missed the draw with Everton due to a minor knock, though Ruben Amorim expects him to be available here. That likely pushes youngster Ayden Heaven back out of the XI. Leny Yoro is also pushing hard for a recall after coming off the bench last time out, and Matheus Cunha looks set to face his former club. On the other hand, Benjamin Sesko remains sidelined with that knee issue, and Harry Maguire looks unlikely to feature.

If you look at Wolves’ form, it tells its own story: eight straight defeats in all competitions, goals drying up, confidence leaking out of the team like air from a punctured tyre. It’s rough. And even though they did the double over United last season, you can’t shake the feeling that this version of Wolves is a lot more fragile.
United haven’t exactly been electric, but they’re steadier. Four wins, three draws, one defeat across their last eight league games — not brilliant, but enough to show they’re at least trending upwards. You’d expect them to control large stretches of this match, especially if Bruno Fernandes and Casemiro get the midfield ticking.

Wolves can go long spells without testing a keeper at the moment, and that’s where United might feel comfortable. If the visitors get ahead, you can see them slowing things down, staying organised, and letting Wolves make the mistakes.
United have scored in eight of their last nine matches, and Wolves are struggling to score at all. So the angle here leans one way: a tight, low-scoring United win feels the most natural call.
Wolves just haven’t given anyone a reason to back them this season. The effort is there, but the spark isn’t. United aren’t perfect, but they have enough control, enough punch in the final third, and enough defensive improvement to grind this out.
Match Prediction: Manchester United to win. Bet with bet365.
A cagey away win makes the most sense. Wolves rarely get hammered, but they almost never threaten consistently either.
Correct Score Pick: Wolves 0–1 Manchester United.
Correct Score Prediction: Wolves 0–1 Manchester United. Bet with bet365.
If United dictate the game, you’d expect a slower tempo, fewer big chances, and more controlled possession. Wolves’ struggles in the final third point towards a low-score kind of night.
Under 2.5 Goals feels very realistic here.
Over/Under Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals. Bet with bet365.
A simple, promising combo for this match:
It fits the tone of both sides right now — United grinding, Wolves chasing shadows.
Bet Builder Tip: Manchester United to win, under 2.5 goals, and Zirkzee to score anytime. Bet with bet365.
