Liverpool v Wolves Match Preview
Liverpool were seconds away from yet another win in the midweek Merseyside derby before Everton found a leveller that sparked chaotic scenes at Goodison Park.
Arne Slot and Curtis Jones both saw red in the melee that followed, but once the dust settled Liverpool realised they have a seven-point lead at the top of the Premier League with 14 matches remaining.
Slot will be on the touchline as it stands, and said on Friday: “Emotions got the better of me. If I could do that differently, if I look back I would love to do that differently, and I hope to do that differently next time.”
Wolves have lost all seven of their Premier League away games against sides starting the day top of the table and face another difficult day at Anfield.
They have lost nine of their 10 Premier League away games against Liverpool, with the exception being a 1-0 win in December 2010 under Mick McCarthy.
Liverpool v Wolves – Team News
Midfielder Jones is suspended after his dismissal against Everton but Liverpool have no fresh injury concerns. In fact, with Diogo Jota and Federico Chiesa back and featuring in recent weeks Slot is only without defender Joe Gomez.
The versatile England player pulled up just 10 minutes into last weekend’s shock FA Cup defeat in Plymouth and remains out.

Liverpool v Wolves Prediction
Liverpool may have had a chaotic end to the dery to endure in midweek but still look serene at the top of the table and on track for a second Premier League title under Slot.
Wolves were impressive at Blackburn and Cunha is one of the in-form forwards in the Premier League but winning at Anfield looks a massive task.
Mo Salah will score again in a comfortable 2-0 home win for the Reds.
