Man City vs Wolves LIVE!
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!

Wolves, who beat City at Molineux earlier this season, ended their seven-match winless run last time out with a narrow victory over Luton, and they are still firmly in the hunt for a top-half finish.

Man City vs Wolves team news
City will have Phil Foden and Ruben Dias back in the squad, after both missed the trip to Nottingham Forest with illness.
Ederson is also set to feature, having recovered from the shoulder injury he suffered against Forest, while Erling Haaland made his return off the bench in that match and Guardiola has confirmed he is now ready to start once more.
As for Wolves, Hwang Hee-chan and Matheus Cunha started together for the first time since December in the win over Luton, and their return to fitness is a major boost for the visitors.
Pedro Neto, Santiago Bueno, Jean-Ricner Bellegarde and Noha Lemina are all now back in training, but it remains to be seen if they will play any part at the Etihad.
Rayan Ait-Nouri is fit again, but Craig Dawson and Leon Chiwone remain on the sidelines.
Man City vs Wolves prediction
Wolves did beat City in the reverse fixture earlier this season, but it is now almost five months since Guardiola’s side last tasted defeat in the Premier League.
They are on yet another relentless end-of-season run, even if they have not been at their best in recent weeks, and they are expected to ease to another efficient and likely uneventful victory.
Man City to win, 2-0.
