Liverpool looks keen on making their way back into the top four this week in the Premier League when they face Wolverhampton Wanderers. The match schedules for Monday at Molineux Stadium with a kickoff at 11 pm.
The champions fall from grace and currently sit eight on the table after a dreadful start. The side now sits eight points clear of their opponents following a peak of performance in recent weeks.
It was a moment of celebration in the reverse fixture when the two sides met in the reverse fixture just over three months ago, with 2,000 fans allowed back at Anfield. The side run riot with a 4-0 win, which leaves them at the top of the table.
Fast forward to the present day; fans remain banned from attending, while Liverpool with six losses in their last seven Premier League matches. The side currently finds themselves 25 points adrift of league leaders Manchester City.
After booking a spot in the Champions League quarter finals after a 2-0 home win at the Puskas Arena in Budapest, Jurgen Klopp might contend with it. Nuno Espirito’s side is winless in their last three outings.
Their only loss at Manchester City is their only defeat in their last seven league outings, having lost four of their previous six and have gone eight matches without a win before that.
