Manchester City lead Wolves 1-0 at half-time of their Premier League match. Despite the score, the visitors had two truly wonderful chances to take the lead but Bellegarde fluffed his lines after overhitting a pass to Munesi when through on goal while Ait-Nouri struck the post with a shot and then saw his rebounded effort saved on the line from Gvardiol. City hadn't threatened for much of the half but ended the first 45 strongly and got their goal through De Bruyne after excellent work from Silva and then Doku. City have created 0.52 xG in comparison to 0.40 for Wolves.
