Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Liverpool

Wolverhampton Wanderers and Liverpool are set to face off at Molineux Stadium in an exciting Premier League showdown.

Wolverhampton enter this round unbeaten in three Premier League matches (W1, D2), keeping a clean sheet on each occasion, as many shutouts as they had in their previous 18 in the competition. However, goals have been at a premium for Wolves of late, with Bruno Lage’s men netting under 1.5 goals in their last four top-flight outings on the trot. In fact, amongst sides starting the day in the top half of the table, no one has scored fewer Premier League goals than Wolves (12) so far this season. In turn, the ‘Wanderers’ have managed a measly average of just 0.71 goals per league match at home this season, which contrasts their fortunes at Molineux. Indeed, they are unbeaten in their last four Premier League games here (W3, D1), with each of their three wins in that period coming by a single-goal margin.

Unlike Wolves, Liverpool have been nothing short of intimidating in front of goal this season, registering a league-high 43 goals scored to date. Liverpool’s eye-catching average of 3.07 goals scored per Premier League fixture this season is second only to Bayern Munich (3.22) when it comes to Europe’s top-five leagues. What’s more, the Merseyside giants are the only Premier League side to have smashed a 20-goal barrier away from home this term (25 goals scored), notably bagging 3+ goals in six of their seven top-flight travels so far. Bringing other competitions into the equation, the ‘Reds’ have netted 2+ goals in each of their last 18 outings, highlighting their well-documented scoring prowess. If that’s not enough to back Liverpool’s status as pre-match favorites, manager Jurgen Klopp boasts a 100% Premier League ratio versus Wolves (W6).
