Man Utd vs Wolves - Kick-off time, TV and live stream details

Manchester United and Wolverhampton Wanderers are the last two Premier League teams to get their season underway, with their meeting at Old Trafford taking place on Monday night.

Newcastle, Brighton, Manchester City and Arsenal occupy the top four spots after opening-day wins, but a two-goal victory for either of these teams would be enough to climb into the Champions League spots at the end of the first gameweek. United are coming off a third-place finish last term, while Wolves ended the campaign down in 13th.

For the visitors, it will be the first game under new manager Gary O'Neil. The former Bournemouth boss took over from Julen Lopetegui after the former Spain manager quit less than a week before the start of the new campaign.

When is Man Utd v Wolves?

Manchester United will face Wolves on Monday, August 14 with kick-off at 8pm. The game is being held at Old Trafford.

Last season's corresponding fixture took place in April, and went the way of the hosts. Anthony Martial gave United a half-time lead, with Alejandro Garnacho making the points safe in second-half stoppage-time.

Team news

Man Utd boss Erik ten Hag will be able to call on both Andre Onana and Mason Mount, both of whom could make their Premier League debut for their new club after arriving this summer. However, the game will come too early for fellow new signing Rasmus Hojlund.

"Of course when he's available and he's here so you have the option to play, but we don't expect him in that short notice to be 100 per cent fit," Erik ten Hag said of the Danish international. "So we have to wait sometime more. We need all positions doubled because of the number of games.

Wolves could hand a second debut to Matt Doherty, who rejoined the club from Atletico Madrid over the summer. Another former Atletico man, club record signing Matheus Cunha, is a slight doubt but could yet play a part.
