Chris Sutton has pointed out that Manchester City may have an advantage in their upcoming Premier League match against Wolves due to not being in the Champions League. City recently defeated Nottingham Forest 2-0, getting closer to potentially regaining the Premier League title. With their full focus on domestic competitions, City could benefit from not having European games to contend with, allowing them to prepare thoroughly for their match against Wolves.
Sutton highlighted that City’s ability to bring on substitutes like Erling Haaland, who scored in the previous match against Forest, shows the depth and quality of their squad. Wolves did secure a victory against City earlier in the season, but their recent form has seen a decline, making Sutton predict a comfortable 3-0 win for City in the upcoming match. With the players focusing solely on the Premier League, City will be aiming to capitalize on their advantage and secure a crucial victory in the title race.
City’s exit from the Champions League, although a setback, has now provided them with more time to rest and prepare for their crucial domestic matches. While City may have preferred to still be in the Champions League, the absence of European fixtures allows them to focus solely on the Premier League and maintain their pursuit of the title. With their strength in depth and quality players like Haaland, City are well-equipped to take on Wolves and potentially secure a vital win in the race for the Premier League trophy.
