During the pre-season, when Jurgen Klopp left the team, very few football experts expected Liverpool to be this good. The Reds are at the top of the Premier League, a comfortable seven points away from the second-placed Arsenal. Also, in the CL, the Reds were fantastic, finishing first in the Group (League) phase and were really impressive. Their only poor performance was in the FA Cup, where a Championship side, Plymouth, eliminated them in the 1/16 Finals. This game against Wolves is super important because after that game, they will have a really tough schedule - Aston Villa, Manchester City, and Newcastle. So, it is crucial to secure all three points in this match.
Wolverhampton's results constantly declined over the previous seasons, and this season, the goal is only to survive somehow. Throughout the season, they have been in or one place above the danger zone. Right now, they are in 17th with 19 points from 24 matches, just two points away from Leicester City, which is in the relegation zone. In the last game, they secured the trip to the FA Cup 1/8 Finals with a 2:0 win over Blackburn. That will definitely give them some boost in morale for the upcoming games.
Liverpool vs Wolves pick: Liverpool to win and cover the -2 AH spread
Liverpool drew one and lost one in the last two games against Plymouth and Everton, and now is the time to bounce back with a win. However, both games were away from home. At Anfield, the Reds have been incredible in all competitions, losing just once in 18 games with an 83% win rate. 12 of those 15 wins were by at least two goals difference.
Wolves have been far from impressive this season, losing 15 out of 24 Premier League games - 62.5%. But if we take a look at their games against the top six teams in the PL, they were absolutely terrible. In ten games, they won just one point, so it is hard to expect a positive result against the league's leader.
In the previous four h2h games, Liverpool won all four matches while winning by two or more goals on three occasions. Considering all the above, we expect a comfortable win for the hosts.

Liverpool team news
In the previous game against Everton, coach Arne Slot received a red card during the stoppage time and got a two-game ban. Also, midfielder Curtis Jones received a red card and will serve his one-game suspension against Wolves.
When it comes to injuries, Joe Gomez should be the only player to miss the game. The 27-year-old just recovered from a hamstring injury and suffered a muscle injury in the FA Cup game. He will most likely miss at least three or four weeks.

Wolves team news
Hee-chan Hwang suffered an injury in the previous game against Blackburn in the FA Cup and had to leave the field after the first half. For now, there are no news about the seriousness of the injury, but we believe he will miss the upcoming game.
Besides Hwang, the players who missed the previous games should remain sidelined - Leon Chiwome, Enso Gonzalez, Sasa Kalajdzic, Jorgen Strand Larsen, Mario Lemina, Yerson Mosquera, and Boubacar Traore.
On a positive note, Joao Gomes served his one-game suspension against Aston Villa and will be available.
