Wolves vs Liverpool Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

One is challenging for the title while the other is battling for safety.

Former Premier League champions Liverpool will take a trip to Wolverhampton over the weekend to face off against relegation-prone Wolves. Arne Slot’s side come into this game on the back of a dominant 5-1 triumph over West Ham at Anfield. Apart from their disappointing defeat to Nottingham Forest, the Reds have enjoyed a good run across all competitions so far. They are placed second on the league table with 12 points in hand.

Wolves on the other hand find themselves at the bottom of the Premier League table with just one point in five games. Garry O’Neil’s men have not had it easy this season and are yet to win a game. The hosts last won a game a month ago in the Carabao Cup. They have lost three and drawn one ever since.

Players to watch 

Matheus Cunha  (Wolves)

The Brazilian forward has been the only bright spark for Wolves this season. He has 21 goal contributions since the start of 2023-24, the most by any player for the team. He is known for his finishing and positioning abilities.

Moreover, Cunha has rescued his side multiple times from the jaws of defeat. If he can do the same against the Reds remains to be seen.

Luis Diaz (Liverpool)

Luis Diaz will be the main man for their clash against the Wolves. The Colombian forward is Liverpool’s top scorer this season with five goals and also has an assist to his name. Diaz has scored in three of the last four Premier League games and has got his club over the line every time. The only game where he didn’t score was against Forest which his side didn’t win.
