Manchester City, currently topping the table, are favourites to win against visitors Wolves. But do the heavens agree?

The Moon’s placement inside the 1st house (representing the favourites) seems at first glance to be a vote of confidence for Manchester City. But the Moon is almost 7 degrees from the house cusp significantly hindering her power to help their cause.
The situation looks much better for their rivals: As ruler of the opposing 7th house, Mercury represents Wolves, and is placed directly on the cusp of the 10th house (the house of victory and success). Mercury’s opposition with the Part of Fortune (which would also favour Wolves) is just past, but the Moon’s next (and final aspect) significantly also aspects Mercury.
With Mercury (Wolves) playing such a key role, and Jupiter (Manchester City) very much on the sidelines, we can expect to see Wolves do much better than the pundits predict.
