Wolves/Man United
Matheus Cunha 1+ shot on goal/Wolves +1.5 (-136)
Odds are slightly higher than I would have liked but it is what it is these are two likely outcomes. The first leg of this parlay backs Cunha to have 1+ shot on goal, something he has done in 4 of his L5 games and in 12 of his L16 games. Also, Cunha has a combined 8 SOG in his L5 games and 26 SOG in his L16 games. With Hwang Hee-Chan still away from the team playing in the Asian Cup I expect Cunha to stay on track and have a few really good looks today.
For the second leg I am backing an in-form Wolves team who has covered todays spread of +1.5 in 22 of their L24 games and 7 of their L7 games. Also, Wolves have lost just once in their L9 games overall. I now their attack won’t be ass efficient without Hwang in the lineup but as stated above Cunha has been playing on another level and they get back Pedro Neto in their midfield.
United on the other hand is in shambles, dealing with internal issues after internal issue with the most recent being Marcus Rashford. Still unsure if he will start today, hoping he won’t but we will have to wait until 2:15 PM to find out. That won’t matter in my opinion, United has covered todays spread of -1.5 just once all Premier League season, a 3-0 win against Everton. Other than that, they are just 1-20 since mid-August attempting to win by 2+ goals and I don’t see it happening today away from Old Trafford. Wolves are in too good of form and United winning jsut 2 of thier L8 EPL games does not scare me.
Record: 12-9
