Manchester United approach the next Premier League round as number four in the table, having claimed 63 points this season so far. With 34 games behind them, Wolves amassed 40 points, placing them as number 13 before their next fixture.

With just three rounds left to play, Manchester United are long gone in the title race. They are still able to secure a place in the Champions League next season, though, but can't afford to drop too many points. A win against Wolves is required in their quest for a top four spot.
