Manchester United get back to Premier League action when they welcome newly-promoted Wolves to Old Trafford on Saturday afternoon.
United endured a difficult start to the season and Jose Mourinho was under mounting pressure after slumping to disappointing defeats to Brighton and Tottenham in August.
However, the Red Devils have turned things around as they’ve secured hard-fought victories on the road against Burnley and Watford in the league in recent weeks.
The Manchester giants also made a winning start to their Champions League campaign after easing to a routine 3-0 win at Young Boys on Wednesday night so they should head into the weekend action in a positive mood.
But they’ll be up against an ambitious Wolves side that have picked up 8 points from their opening 5 games having stormed their way to promotion from the Championship last season.
Betting odds
United are the 4/7 favourites with the bookmakers to win the game on Saturday afternoon while you can back Wolves at 11/2 and the draw at 16/5.
Both teams to score is available at odds of 19/20 while over 2.5 match goals in the 90 minutes can be backed at 9/10 for those who think there will be goals in this game.
Betting tips
United have beaten Wolves in eight of their last nine meetings but this will be a stern test for Mourinho’s men as Wolves have built a solid side this season. We’re predicting a close match but in the end United should have too much on home soil so a 2-1 United win at odds of 13/2 looks tempting.
Romelu Lukaku made a disappointing start to the new season but the Belgian international has netted six goals in his last four games for club and country so he comes in to this match in fine form. Lukaku as an anytime scorer at odds of 11/10 looks good value in this match.
If you want a little more value, then backing Lukaku to score first in a 2-1 Man Utd win can be picked up at odds of 16/1.
