Premier League 2025-2026: Wolverhampton-Manchester United, the likely lineups
Lower-league tailback Wolverhampton, which has scored just two points in its fourteen Premier League games played so far this season, faces Manchester United at home, eager to climb back into the Europe zone, in the English top league’s classic Monday night. It is played at Molineux Stadium at 9 p.m. Italian time, 8 p.m. local.
Wolves coach Rob Edwards will have to do without several players.
Bentley, Chiwome and Rodrigo Gomes have been injured for some time, while Munetsi has been hurt in recent days. Also out is Joao Gomes, disqualified for added cautions. On the field expected to use a single point, Larsen, supported by trequartists Arias and Hwang.
On the other side Ruben Amorim will still not be able to count on Maguire in defense and Sesko in attack, both injured, but he has all the other players in the squad available: in the Portuguese coach’s 3-4-2-1 there will be room for Zirkzee in attack, with Mbeumo and Cunha backing him up. On the flanks Diallo and Dorgu promise effectiveness and speed in both phases of the game.
Probable lineups
Wolverhampton (3-4-2-1): Johnstone; Mosquera, Toti, Agbadou; Doherty, Andre, Bellegarde, Wolfe; Arias, Hwang; Larsen. All. Edwards.
Manchester United (3-4-2-1): Lammens; Mazraoui, De Ligt, Shaw; Diallo, Casemiro, Fernandes, Dorgu; Mbeumo, Cunha; Zirkzee. All. Amorim.
