Man City vs Wolves LIVE early team news and how to watch Premier League clash

Manchester City return to the Etihad Stadium this afternoon when they host Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League.

City enter this afternoon's clash following a difficult week which saw them lose to Manchester United in the derby before a painful 3-1 loss to Bodo/Glimt on Tuesday night. Pep Guardiola insisted in his pre-match press conference he still holds full confidence in his team and the gap to Arsenal will be just four points if the Blues are victorious.

Wolves have had a dreadful season but have shown signs of positivity under Rob Edwards. They have not lost since the trip to Liverpool and are much more competitive than their league position suggests.

Antoine Semenyo, Bernardo Silva and Jeremy Doku are all expected to be recalled to the team after missing the defeat in Norway. New signing Marc Guehi is in line to make his debut for the club after his £20m transfer from Crystal Palace.
