We said: Wolverhampton Wanderers 0-2 Manchester City

In spite of their lack of defensive options, a backline of Fernandinho and Laporte is still a reliable pairing for Man City, whereas Wolves are not the same defensive force that very nearly shut the champions out at the Etihad. Guardiola's side only have the Premier League title left to fight for this term and have been in utterly ruthless form domestically, which is sure to aid their prospects of victory against a Wolves side whose inconsistency at Molineux should bedevil them once again.
