    Manchester United came back from the dead to beat Lyon on Thursday and they will be looking for a similar resurrection in the Premier League when they host Wolves (Sunday, 1400 GMT).

    You can be the biggest Man United critic in the world, but you can’t deny that their extra time comeback against Lyon was pretty badass.

    Three goals in the final six minutes of Thursday’s quarter-final clash saved Ruben Amorim from a potentially awkward meeting with the United suits.

    Bowing out of the Europa League and finishing the domestic season in the bottom half of the table would’ve been disastrous. However, thanks to Thursday’s heroics, United still have a chance of winning a major trophy and qualifying for the Champions League.

    With the Red Devils putting all their Easter eggs in the European basket, there’s an opportunity for Wolves to break a few records.

    Vitor Pereira’s men come into this game on the back of a four-match winning run, with Spurs being their latest victims in a 4-2 thumping last weekend.

    Here we pick out some of our best tips for Man United's clash with Wolves on Easter Sunday, and if you put it into a Betway five-legged bet builder.

    With Manchester United setting their sights on Europea League, Wolves have a rare opportunity to pull off a season double over the Red Devils – potentially their first since 1979/80.

    The visitors have serious momentum on their side considering they’re coming into Sunday’s game on the back of four straight victories. That is their best run of top-flight wins since January 1972.

    Southampton, West Ham, Ipswich and Tottenham have all faced the wrath of Wolves in recent weeks, with Spurs getting the biggest spanking of them all – a 4-2 defeat at Molineux.

    Speaking of significant wins, United’s comeback over Lyon certainly felt like a keynote moment in Amorim’s reign.

    Despite this, we can’t forget the fact they conceded four goals – the second successive in which that has happened.

    Shipping ten goals in three games has to be a serious concern for Amorim who has a major rebuild on his hands in the summer.

    However, before he can bring in reinforcements and strengthen the gaping hole at the back, the Portuguese coach has to use the tools which are currently at his disposal.

    With that in mind, Wolves are the ones to back in the outright market. The visitors will have no fear as they head to Old Trafford and target their fifth straight victory.

    Both teams aren’t exactly gun-shy either, which is why we’re adding BTTS and over 2.5 goals to our bet builder.

    In terms of specific goalscorers, we like the look of Jorgen Stand Larsen. The Norwegian forward has bagged five goals across his last four matches, including a brace against Southampton.
