Man City has encountered a rough patch lately, showing limited signs of a comeback. In contrast, Wolves have been prolific in scoring, especially in away games. This makes Both Teams to Score (BTTS) a favorable betting option at the Etihad Stadium, with odds set at 1.96. The focus is on leveraging Wolves' attacking form against a vulnerable Man City defense, making BTTS a potential highlight for bettors.
