MATCH DETAILS

Liverpool v. Wolverhampton

May 12, 2019

Anfield, Liverpool

MATCH PREVIEW

Liverpool host Wolverhampton in the final matchweek of the Premier League season, with manager Jurgen Klopp hoping to clinch the title if Manchester City fail to get three points in their match away to Brighton.

Liverpool are in a tremendous form, winning eight consecutive league matches, and they'll now benefit from the return of Mohammed Salah, who missed their midweek Champions League match against Barcelona because of a concussion. 

On the other hand, Wolves come in with three consecutive wins while already clinching seventh place in the table, a remarkable finish after earning promotion from the Championship just a year ago. Nevertheless, Wolves are in the business to spoil Liverpool's title race with an away win.

There are few injury concerns for Liverpool, with Roberto Firmino (groin) and Naby Keita (groin) out while Adam Lallana (muscle) is doubtful. On the other side, Wolves have a fully fit squad.

PREDICTED XI

Liverpool: Alisson Becker (GK), Trent Alexander-Arnold, Joel Matip, Virgil van Dijk, Andrew Robertson, Jordan Henderson, Fabinho, Georginio Wijnaldum, Mohamed Salah, Divock Origi, Sadio Mane

Wolverhampton: Rui Patricio (GK), Willy Boly, Conor Coady, Ryan Bennett, Jonny, Joao Moutinho, Ruben Neves, Leander Dendoncker, Matt Doherty, Diogo Jota, Raul Jimenez

COMBINED XI

PLAYERS RECOMMENDATIONS

Defender: Virgil van Dijk (9 credits): The Netherlands international is averaging solid 5.4 clearances, 1.1 interceptions and 0.7 tackles

PLAYERS RECOMMENDATIONS

Defender: Virgil van Dijk (9 credits): The Netherlands international is averaging solid 5.4 clearances, 1.1 interceptions and 0.7 tackles per game this season, while also adding an impressive four goals and two assists, mainly from set pieces.

Midfielder: Sadio Mane: (10.5 credits): Mane comes in with an impressive 20 goals and one assist in 35 league appearances this season, as he continues to be a vital piece of a Liverpool attack that is so close to clinching the Premier League title.

Forward: Mohamed Salah (10.5 credits): Salah is undoubtedly one of the best in the world, and he's the Premier League Golden Boot leader heading into the final match. A brace last weekend has him up to 22 goals and eight assists in 37 appearances, and he's a solid contributor thanks to his 1.8 key passes and 1.7 shots on target per match.
