Man City vs Wolves LIVE! Premier League match stream and latest score as Erling Haaland scores two goals
Manchester City will look to move one step closer to a fourth consecutive Premier League triumph on another huge day in the title race. Pep Guardiola’s second-place side went into the weekend sitting one point adrift at the summit with a game in hand after five straight top-flight wins, but that deficit has now stretched to four after leaders Arsenal beat Bournemouth 3-0 at home in the lunchtime kick-off.
City remain in pole position as they seek a sixth title in the last seven years, but must beat Wolves this evening to maintain their advantage heading into the final stretch. Guardiola is hugely boosted for this game by the returns of Erling Haaland, Ederson and Phil Foden to his starting line-up, while Ruben Dias is back on the bench.
Wolves’ selection crisis is now finally easing as they compete for a top-half finish in the final weeks of the campaign, though manager Gary O’Neil will be absent from the touchline today as he serves a one-match FA suspension. Follow Man City vs Wolves live with Standard Sport below!
