Manchester City are looking for their sixth Premier League win in a row as they welcome Wolves to the Etihad on Saturday.
Pep Guardiola's side leapfrogged Chelsea to sit top of the table after a 3-1 win over Watford last weekend, while Bruno Lage's visitors are eighth and winless in their last three league games.
The City boss will check on Phil Foden and Nathan Ake ahead of the clash after the duo limped off against RB Leipzig midweek but the table-toppers have Kevin de Bruyne back in action.

Bernardo Silva has been in fine firing form recently and he has his first shot of the game.
Cancelo fires a pass into Bernardo on the edge of the area. He shuffles inside, onto his left foot, and hits a rising drive just past the far post.
A good effort but not enough to worry Jose Sa.
Traore, who will outpace anyone on the pitch this afternoon, streams into City's half with the ball.
Wolves manage to hold on to the ball as City's defence scramble to win the ball back but Neves's effort dribbles through to Ederson.
A beautifully delicate ball is lifted over the Wolves defence to Raheem Sterling who is through on goal.
He eases past Saiss but his shot is straight at Jose Sa. It seems Sterling was expecting to be tripped from behind by the Wolves defender.
Peep peep!
The Etihad pays tribute to honorary president and City board member Ian Niven MBE who passed away at the age 97 this week.
The players take the knee in the league's anti-racism gesture and Wolves get us underway.
Bruno Lage's squad have been on the pitch warming up on a fresh Saturday afternoon.
It's seven degrees up in Manchester but that's practically tropical for the North West.
JOE BERNSTEIN: Ederson graces the front cover of City’s matchday programme and fancy his first clean sheet since November 21 given that Wolves have failed to score in their last five
City and Wolves have faced each together 14 times in the PL to date.
As expected City dominate the fixture and have won eight times, while Wolves have come out victorious in four. The fixture has ended in a stalemate twice.
Wolves have bagged 18 goals compared to City's 30.
Wolves head to the Etihad looking to end their slight goal drought after scoring only once in their last five games.
But boss Bruno Lage has stressed he has confidence the goals will come for the Midlands outfit.
Pep Guardiola has made two changes from City's last league game. Oleksandr Zinchenko steps in for Kyle Walker and Gabriel Jesus for Phil Foden.
City were monitoring Foden ahead of the clash after the 21-year-old came off at half-time of Tuesday’s Champions League defeat by RB Leipzig after feeling pain in his ankle.
But he is fit enough to be selected for the bench.
Here's a reminder of all the Premier League action this weekend.
Steven Gerrard makes his return to Anfield for the first time in his managerial career and is sure to receive a warm reception from the Kop faithful even though he takes charge of Liverpool's opposition in Aston Villa today.
Meanwhile, Tottenham's trip to Brighton has been postponed following a Covid outbreak at the club.
