Manchester United have long been criticised for leaking goals. This was one of the reasons why United had an abysmal season last time around. However, with the acquisition of Harry Maguire, United look to have found a solution.

It was refreshing to see United’s solidity in the back against Chelsea. Maguire paired well with Victor Lindelöf and even picked the man of the match. He will have to put in a similar performance tonight in order to shut Raul Jimenez down. Keeping the Mexican quiet will amount to United winning half the battle.

The Wolves are a brilliant counter attacking side who are also threatening from set-pieces. Maguire’s physical presence will be much required in such situations. Manchester United are without a victory in their last 4 away matches.

To not concede a goal would be a brilliant way to go about for the victory. A solid defense will allow Pogba to press higher up allowing him to create more chances for the likes of Rashford and Martial. It all, therefore, comes down to Maguire his composure and ability to rally the back four.
