THE LOWDOWN

WOLVES

  • Despite asserting plenty of pressure on the Burnley goal, Wolves’ lack of cutting edge saw them held to a 0-0 draw at home by the Clarets in midweek with an improvement going forward needing to get anything out of this one.
  • Midfielder Ruben Neves returns from suspension and Daniel Podence could be back available following his period of isolating after suffering with COVID-19, however Fernando Marcal is currently in isolation, whilst the current group of injured players remain absent.

LIVERPOOL

  • Liverpool made another fantastic statement in regards to their title ambitions at Goodison Park, hammering Everton by four goals to one with the imperious Mo Salah at the double and captain Jordan Henderson recording both a goal and an assist.
  • Provided the Reds suffered no knocks following the Merseyside derby, then the expectation is that Jurgen Klopp will name an unchanged side here with Harvey Elliott, Roberto Firmino, Joe Gomez, Curtis Jones and Naby Keita all missing.

THE PREDICTION

With three straight Premier League victories to their name, four goals scored in each of those wins and only one goal conceded, Liverpool are hitting top form at a good time, just before the busy Christmas period. The Reds are as solid defensively as they are deadly going forward and no backline in the Premier League appears capable of keeping them out over the course of 90 minutes. Wolves will certainly give it their best shot and are not to be underestimated having recorded three successive clean sheets ahead of this match. However, Bruno Lage’s side have not faced a side boasting the pace, precision and quality that Liverpool contain within their frontline and whilst this contest should prove closer than their 1-4 triumph at Everton, Jurgen Klopp’s men are still expected to record their second successive away win in less than a week.

Tip: LIVERPOOL TO WIN
