Desperate Wolves Look To Get First Premier League Win Against Weary Manchester United

The Wolves vs Manchester United clash is going to be a very interesting match to watch because of how important it is for both teams to get a win in the Premier League in their current states.

Wolves are the only team yet to win a single match and have picked up a meagre two points from their 14 matches so far this season. As they are utterly desperate for a win this season, Wolves will be throwing the proverbial kitchen sink at Manchester United and look to get a big victory at the Red Devils’ expense.

Ruben Amorim’s side won their tricky last away game, but their momentum went down after the draw against West Ham United recently. They are eager to get back to winning ways to close in on the Premier League top four, as they look to get another clinical away win against the struggling Wolves side.

Interestingly, Wolves have won their last two matches against Manchester United, even though the Red Devils have three wins in the last five overall Premier League meetings against them and will be eager to end their recent winless streak against Wolves with a big win.

Can Jorgen Strand Larsen Reignite His Best Form To Haunt Manchester United?

Wolves have had a pretty poor record heading into the Wolves vs Manchester United clash, having lost their last five Premier League matches and not being able to score a single goal in that period. They obviously need a source of inspiration from someone to be able to reignite their form, and that could possibly come in the form of their dangerous striker, Jorgen Strand Larsen.

Larsen has scored just one goal so far in the 2025/26 Premier League, which came in the 3-2 loss to Burnley, but his goalscoring capabilities cannot be undermined. The Norwegian forward will look to reinvigorate his teammates by being a tormenting figure up front, trying to help with the link-up play and confusing defenders.

Larsen will, however, need to be at his clinical best in converting chances perfectly to be able to help Wolves get a big win over the Red Devils.

Special Matheus Cunha Determined To Undo Former Side in Molineux Stadium Return

Matheus Cunha is set to make his return to the Molineux Stadium for the Wolves vs Manchester United clash after joining the Red Devils from Wolves in the 2025 summer window. Cunha remains a well-liked figure among Wolves fans, but he will look to torment his former side in the upcoming Premier League game.

Cunha has only scored one goal in the 2025/26 Premier League so far for the Red Devils and is desperate for more goals. The Brazilian forward has an instinctive knowledge of the strengths and weaknesses of most of his former Wolves teammates, and will aim to use that knowledge to trouble them.

Cunha will need to be smart in carrying the ball forward and look to create big chances, but he’ll also be urged to take more shots at goal and enhance Manchester United goal-scoring threat as he looks to haunt his former side.
