A short corner is played to Mahrez, he sends a dangerous cross into the box and almost finds Sterling, but Patricio comes out to claim the ball.

WHAT A MISS! Cutrone is set straight through on goal by Traore, with Otamendi not reading the bouncing ball, but his dinked finish ends up going well wide!
2'
City are knocking the ball around comfortably with Wolves keeping most of their players camped in their own half, waiting to pounce on the counter.
Sterling feeds Aguero who spots a gap following a breakdown in communication between Coady and Boly, but his shot is blocked.

Things are looking up for Wolves right now.
An impressive 1-0 victory against Besiktas in the Europa League on Thursday night made it four games unbeaten in all competitions after a slow start to their campaign.
With Nuno’s side now getting into a bit of rhythm they could make a real statement of intent with a positive result this afternoon.

How will Joao Cancelo get on?
That’s the big question today as he makes his full Premier League debut. The £60m summer signing from Juventus is traditionally a right-back, yet he is getting chucked onto the opposite flank. Classic Pep.
Mendy, John Stones, Aymeric Laporte and Kevin De Bruyne are all missing through injury for the Premier League champions.
Wolves could sense an opportunity to do some damage today…

Nuno Espirito Santo is also making three changes to his side that beat Watford last weekend.
Patrick Cutrone will make just his second Premier League start with Ruben Vinagre and Ruben Neves also coming back into the starting lineup.
