Manchester United return to the Premier League as they travel to visit a rising Wolves team at the Monlieux Stadium on Thursday.
The Red Devils had a brutal December in which they won just two of their eight games in all competitions, and although they have since avoided defeat in all three of their games in 2024, it still looks like this season is on the verge of being considered a disappointment. .
Last time out in the FA Cup against League Two side Newport County over the weekend, United once again looked fragile. While they managed to progress in the competition, prospects were poor as they squandered an early 2-0 lead, needing a pair of goals in the final half hour to advance with a 4-2 victory.
Meanwhile, Wolves are unbeaten in seven games in all competitions, winning five and drawing two in that period. The run has taken them to 10th place in the Premier League table, and a win here would see them catch up with and overtake Man United in the top half of the table.

- Score prediction: Wolves 2-1 Man United
Erik ten Hag’s team has shown signs of continued fight even during this three-match mini unbeaten streak. The near disaster against Newport County last time out in the FA Cup was the latest example of poor optics even in victory.
Their 2-2 draw with Spurs before that left United well beaten over the course of the game, and they struggled mightily at Nottingham Forest in their most recent trip to the Premier League, a 2-1 defeat.
Wolves, meanwhile, are on a good run, unbeaten in their last four games and producing a solid attacking output in each match, including the 0-0 draw with Brighton last time out, an effort that simply lacked finishing by both sides.
