The opening day of the 2022 Premier League (PL) ends with an interesting and vital showdown between Manchester United, a candidate to finish in the top four, and Wolverhampton, who are looking to break into European competition spots.

Further encouragement to the home side is the fact that they are currently going through their longest winning streak against the Wolves (W3) since a streak that ended in 1968. Not only are the 'Red Devils' performing well in and against January. opposition, also boast the PL's highest win rate in Monday games (65%), further suggesting there will be no holiday hangover here for the Ralf Rangnick-led cast.
The visiting team from Wolverhampton continues to seek to get into the qualifying zone for European competitions, although it is expected that they will have enough problems against a team that has not beaten away at league level in more than 40 years (D3, L7) . As a result, and considering the latter, it's hard to imagine the visiting team extending their current impressive 204-minute streak without conceding any further. It may not take much to solve this problem, as each of Wolves' last seven games in the PL (W2, D3, L2) has ended with just one goal, or no goals at all. Interestingly, only two teams in PL history have recorded longer streaks of consecutive games with less than 1.5 goals in total - something that hasn't happened since Burnley recorded nine such games in 2016.
