Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at how Wolverhampton Wanderers could line up for Friday's Premier League clash with Manchester City.

Top of the Premier League's form table, Wolverhampton Wanderers will put their new-found confidence to the test on Friday, when they visit outgoing champions Manchester City.

Just two strikes shy of a club record 17-goal haul achieved by Raul Jimenez in 2019-20, Matheus Cunha is set to join Marshall Munetsi in support of Jorgen Strand Larsen up front.

The latter - who also found the net in October's reverse fixture - has scored the winner in four of his last six appearances, making him all but undroppable.

Hwang Hee-chan and Jean-Ricner Bellegarde both returned to the bench last week, while Pablo Sarabia, Carlos Forbs and Goncalo Guedes are all outside contenders to start across the final third.

In midfield, ex-City man Tommy Doyle is set to miss out, as Brazilian duo Andre and Joao Gomes should again be flanked by adventurous wing-backs Nelson Semedo and Rayan Ait-Nouri - and there may also be an unchanged Wolves defence at the Etihad.

Able to recall fit-again Jose Sa last weekend, Vitor Pereira is expected to select Emmanuel Agbadou, Toti Gomes and Santiago Bueno just in front of the Portuguese goalkeeper.

Wolverhampton Wanderers possible starting lineup: Sa; Bueno, Agbadou, Toti; Semedo, Andre, Gomes, Ait-Nouri; Munetsi, Cunha; Larsen
