City had the second best home record in the Barclays Premier League last season behind neighbours United while Wolves had the most wins on the road in the Championship.
Wolverhampton jumped out quickly in their game against Wigan Athletic as they scored in just the 5th minute when Andy Keogh drove a header to the back of the net. Many were predicting that Wigan would manhandle the Wolves in their home game but it wasn’t meant to be for Roberto Martinez and his squad. Instead the Wolves pulled away with three points and look like they are up for competing this year.
On the other side of the pitch Manchester City lived up to their expectations and handled Blackburn with ease in their game. Even without some of their stars playing such as Carlos Tevez, City showed what they were able to do and have to be one of the favorites to compete at the top of the table this year. A big win over the Wolves would give them a jumpstart on the competition and prove that they are for real this 2009-10 English Premier League season.
