Today, Liverpool host Wolverhampton Wanderers (commonly known as Wolves) at Anfield in a Premier League fixture. Kick-off is at 3:00 PM GMT (10:00 AM EST)

Liverpool (managed by Arne Slot) are in resurgent form, unbeaten in their last six matches across all competitions (W4, D2). They come into this game off a 2-1 away win against Tottenham Hotspur just before Christmas, with goals from Alexander Isak and Hugo Ekitike. The Reds are pushing for a top-four spot and have been strong over the festive period historically, winning 17 of their last 20 Premier League games between Christmas and New Year.

Wolverhampton Wanderers (managed by Rob Edwards) are enduring a disastrous season, sitting bottom of the table with just 2 points from 17 games (0 wins, 2 draws, 15 losses). They’ve lost their last 10 Premier League matches, including a 2-0 home defeat to Brentford last time out. Wolves are 16 points from safety and risking one of the worst starts in Premier League history.

This match carries emotional weight, as it’s the first meeting between the sides since the tragic passing of former Liverpool and Wolves player Diogo Jota in July 2025. Jota’s sons are expected to join the matchday mascots.

Liverpool dominate recent encounters:
Won their last 5 meetings against Wolves in all competitions.
Won 13 of the last 15 overall.
Wolves’ last league win at Anfield was in 2010; they’ve lost their last 8 Premier League away games there.

Liverpool: Dealing with several injuries and absences (including some players at AFCON, like Mohamed Salah). Key attackers like Hugo Ekitike (in hot form with goals in recent games) and Florian Wirtz could feature prominently. Expect Liverpool to control possession, build patiently, and exploit wide areas.

Wolves: Missing players like Toti Gomes (long-term hamstring) and others on international duty. They’ll likely sit deep, stay compact, and look for direct counters or set-pieces with tall forwards like Jørgen Strand Larsen.

Predictions across sources heavily favor a comfortable Liverpool win (around 70-75% probability), potentially by multiple goals, given the massive disparity in form.
This looks like a straightforward home victory on paper for Liverpool against the league’s struggling side. Enjoy the game! If you’re looking for live updates or specific player stats, let me know.
