The top spot in the Premier League table is up for grabs for Manchester City when they travel to Molineux to take on Wolverhampton Wanderers at lunchtime Saturday.
The Citizens beat Borussia Dortmund 2-1 in the Champions League in midweek, while the hosts have not been in action since beating Southampton 1-0 on September 3.
From being Wolves' new striker to suffering a severe ACL injury in the first half of his football for a Premier League side, Sasa Kalajdzic endured all the emotions as he now embarks on a long road to recovery.
With Raul Jimenez also struggling to cut the mustard, Wolves have turned to Premier League winner Diego Costa to spearhead their attack, with the former Chelsea man bringing his fiery and controversial style of playback to England for another year.
Wolves did not need Kalajdzic, Costa, or Jimenez to sink Southampton 1-0 two weekends ago, as Daniel Podence scored the only goal of the game in first-half injury time for their first win of the season, and their trip to Anfield to pick up at Liverpool was postponed. after the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
As such, Lage's side still has an unbeaten run in the three games leading up to the champions' visit, but their lack of firepower to date has only allowed them to move up to 14th in the table with the lowest three goals in the league - only West Ham United are embarrassed too. -embarrassed.
Having conceded just one goal at Molineux and a total of four goals so far this season, Wolves have the honor of being the Premier League's best defending team after six games, and every inch of that back row must count if City is to leave. with anything less than three points.
