Wolverhampton Wanderers host Manchester United today as the home side seek their first Premier League victory of the new season.
Wolves were on the wrong end of 1-0 results against Leicester and Tottenham in their first two matches of the term, but they bounced back by breezing past Nottingham Forest 4-0 in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday evening.
The club’s new manager Bruno Lage will hope his team can take momentum from that win against a Man United side who slipped up against Southampton in their most recent outing.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s players blew away Leeds United 5-1 on the opening weekend of the Premier League season, but they were forced to come from behind to secure a 1-1 away draw with the Saints last time out.
The backdrop to this tie is obviously the return of Cristiano Ronaldo to United. The Portugal captain is not expected to join the squad until after the impending international break, however.
