Wolves forward Matheus Cunha is expected to play against Manchester United on Boxing Day despite an FA charge for misconduct. Cunha was involved in an altercation with Ipswich staff earlier this month.
Manchester United will be looking to get back to winning ways when they travel to Wolves on Boxing Day . Ruben Amorim's side were beaten 3-0 by Bournemouth on Sunday, representing their seventh Premier League defeat of the season and sit 13th in the table on Christmas Day. Goals from Dean Huijsen, Justin Kluivert and Antoine Semenyo condemned United to a dismal defeat and their second in three days after losing 4-3 at Tottenham.
Amorim, who was appointed as Erik ten Hag's permanent successor last month, has now won just four of his nine matches in charge. Next up for United is a trip to Molineux to face Wolves, who will be rejuvenated after a confidence-boosting 3-0 win over relegation rivals Leicester in Vitor Pereira's first game at the helm. Goncalo Guedes, Rodrigo Gomes and Matheus Cunha scored as Wolves moved to within just two points of safety. With this in mind, Manchester Evening News takes a look at the latest news and rumours heading into United's clash with Wolves.... Cunha availability Is Matheus Cunha available for United's trip to Wolves? At the moment, the Brazilian is set to play despite being charged by the Football Association following a heated altercation with an Ipswich staff member at the end of their 2-1 defeat earlier this month. Cunha, who has been one of Wolves' star performers this season, struck a member of the Ipswich coaching team and removed glasses from another staff member's face. The FA charged Cunha with misconduct last Tuesday and had until Thursday to respond. That deadline passed but Wolves heard nothing from the Premier League or the FA, so Cunha remained available for the trip to Leicester. As the relevant bodies haven't said anything back, Cunha is still free to be involved for Wolves in their upcoming fixtures unless told otherwise. MEN says: Cunha has been sensational for Wolves this season. He has scored in each of his last two appearances and could be crucial against Manchester United on Boxing Da
