Liverpool vs Wolves prediction: How will Premier League match play out today?

PA

Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool showed no signs of fatigue from their exertions at the Club World Cup in Qatar, slotting back into domestic action seamlessly.

The Reds destroyed Leicester at the King Power in what could be a defining victory in their pursuit of a first league title in 30 years.

Trent Alexander-Arnold provided a reminder of his class with a storming performance alongside Roberto Firmino, who has four goals in his last three matches.

That makes it tricky for Klopp to tweak his side too much with every player undoubtedly reluctant to drop out while the side is in such a great run of form.

LIVE: Latest updates from Anfield

Here is our prediction for the game at Anfield.

Confirmed line-ups

Liverpool: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, van Dijk, Robertson, Lallana, Henderson, Wijnaldum, Salah, Firmino, Mane.

Wolverhampton: Rui Patricio, Bennett, Coady, Kilman, Jonny, Dendoncker, Neves, Joao Moutinho, Ruben Vinagre, Pedro Neto, Jota

What is the team news?

Fabinho, Joel Matip and Dejan Lovren are both set to miss out again, but Jordan Henderson is a fresh concern, having limped off against Leicester with a knock.

Wolves are set to be without Willy Boly (ankle) and Morgan Gibbs-White (back) once again.

When is it?

Liverpool vs Wolves kicks off at 4:30pm (GMT) on Sunday 29 December.

Where can I watch it? Is there a live stream?

The match will be available to watch live on Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League, with coverage starting at 4pm.

Sky Sports subscribers can watch a live stream of the game on the go with any of your mobile devices using Sky Go, while non-subscribers can go to NowTV and buy a day, week or month pass to tune into the action.

Our prediction

We simply cannot go against the Reds here, their form combined with Nuno’s misfortune to have to contend with City less than two days before points towards a home win for us, we’ll go 3-0 with a couple late goals as Wolves feel the effects of their testing 48 hours.

What are the odds?

Liverpool 1/4

Wolves 11/1

Draw 19/4
