Manchester City have won seven of their last eight home Premier League matches against Wolves, losing the other 2-0 in October 2019.
Since completing a league double over Man City in 1960-61, Wolves have managed just one top-flight double over the Citizens in 25 seasons, doing so in the 2019-20 campaign. They beat them 2-1 earlier this season at Molineux.
Wolves have completed one Premier League double over Man City since Pep Guardiola joined the club in 2016, doing so in 2019-20. No side in Guardiola’s entire league managerial career has completed more than one double over the Spaniard.
Manchester City are unbeaten in their last 19 Premier League games (W15 D4). They’ve already had four runs of 20+ without defeat in the competition (3 under Pep Guardiola), and could be the second side to do so five times after Manchester United (7).
Manchester City are unbeaten in their last 31 games in all competitions (W25 D6). The last Premier League team to have a longer run were Manchester United, who went 33 games without defeat between December and May in the 1998-99 campaign.
Wolves’ 2-1 win over Luton last time out ended a six-game winless run in the Premier League (D2 L4). Only twice this season have they had runs of consecutive victories, winning three in a row in December and two in a row in February.
All five of Wolves’ Premier League away wins this season have been against either teams starting the day in the relegation zone (2) or London clubs (3). They’ve lost 18 of their 20 Premier League away games against sides in the top two, winning the others at Tottenham (December 2018) and Man City (October 2019).
Man City’s Kevin De Bruyne has started six Premier League matches against Wolves and has both scored five goals and assisted five goals against them, although nine of those involvements came at Molineux (5 goals, 4 assists).
Kevin De Bruyne’s two assists in Man City’s 2-0 win against Nottingham Forest last time out took his overall tally in the Premier League to 110; he’s now just one behind second placed Cesc Fàbregas in the all-time ranking in the competition.
Both Hwang Hee-chan and Matheus Cunha have scored 11 Premier League goals for Wolves this season. There’s been just three occasions of a player scoring more for the club in a campaign – Steven Fletcher in 2011-12 (12), and Raúl Jiménez in 2018-19 (13) and 2019-20 (17).
