By Bence Bocsak
Manchester United will take on Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League and new signing Bruno Fernandes could make his debut.
When Manchester United take on Wolverhampton in the Premier League in Saturday afternoon the mood at Old Trafford will have transformed into a frenzy of excitement. The atmosphere will be a stark contrast to United’s last game on home turf; the defeat to Burnley.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and his men will be desperate to put things right and they will be fired up for the encounter.
In Wolves they will take on a strong side hoping to challenge the Red Devils for a European spot which means this will be a crucial tie for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and his men.

United must not fall to another disappointing defeat. They have developed a habit of losses since the start of the month and it is time Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and his men end that unsuccessful run.
They will be boosted by the arrival of Bruno Fernandes who has been confirmed to be part of the match day squad and has already taken part in training sessions at Carrington.
Of course, perhaps a start will be too early just yet for the Portuguese playmaker but he could certainly come off the bench and make his debut.
Here is how Manchester United are expected to line-up:
Goalkeeper: David de Gea
Right Back: Aaron Wan-Bissaka
Centre Back: Harry Maguire
Centre Back: Victor Lindelof
Left Back: Brandon Williams
Central Midfielder: Fred
Central Midfielder: Juan Mata
Central Midfielder: Andreas Pereira
Right Winger: Mason Greenwood
Forward: Anthony Martial
Left Winger: Daniel James.
Currently this is the strongest starting eleven Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has at his disposal with the mounting injury crisis at Old Trafford. New boy Bruno Fernandes will without a shadow of a doubt be on the bench and he will certainly be called upon.
Nemanja Matic is suspended and will not be involved which means Andreas Pereira will come into the starting line-up in his place.
