Manchester City will begin its quest to reclaim the Premier League title with a match against Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday, August 16, 2025. The game is set to kick off at 12:30 PM EDT at Molineux Stadium in Wolverhampton, England. Fans can watch the match on NBC Universo nationally or WACY-TV 32 locally. It will also be available for streaming on Fubo.

Last season, Manchester City finished second in the league, falling short of the title for only the second time in seven years. The team is eager to start the new season on a strong note, especially after losing the title to Liverpool. City will be looking to avoid any early setbacks as they aim to reclaim their crown.

Former Wolves captain Rayan Ait-Nouri will return to Molineux, hoping to secure a victory against his old club. City manager Pep Guardiola will rely on new signing Tijjani Reijnders, who has stepped in to fill the role of Kevin De Bruyne, who left the team over the summer. However, City will be without Ballon d'Or winner Rodri, who is expected to be sidelined until September due to injury.

In preparation for the new season, Manchester City had a mixed summer, losing only one match but failing to win the FIFA Club World Cup in the United States, where they were eliminated by Al-Hilal in extra time. Meanwhile, Wolverhampton struggled in pre-season, failing to secure a win under new manager Vitor Pereira. Despite this, Wolves are determined to make a strong start to the season and aim for an upset against the reigning champions.

The match marks the beginning of the 2025-26 Premier League season, which promises to be filled with excitement and competition. Fans are encouraged to tune in to catch all the action.
