Liverpool vs Wolves Prediction & Match Preview

Liverpool vs Wolves Match Preview

Jurgen Klopp will bid farewell to Liverpool as the Reds host Wolves in the last game of the season on Sunday afternoon at Anfield. Although neither team have anything to play for, it will by all means be an emotional game for the Anfield faithful. Can the German manager end his lengthy and successful reign at the helm with a victory on the final day?

• Liverpool kept only 1 clean sheet in the last 16 league fixtures.
• Wolves enter this off the back of four defeats in the last five league affairs.
• The visitors conceded eight goals in the previous two losses to Man City and Crystal Palace.

Liverpool have given up the title race a while ago. The 2-2 draw at Manchester United turned their season around while the 0-2 defeat at Everton in the Merseyside derby officially eliminated the Reds from the title quest. Since then, Klopp’s men have managed two draws and a win in three league games. They gave up a two-goal advantage in a 3-3 stalemate at Aston Villa on Monday night.

Wolves seem to have been on the beach for quite some time. They won just one of the last ten league fixtures. The team led by Gary O’Neil enter this tie off the back of four defeats in the last five Premier League rounds. The latest loss came last Saturday, a 1-3 home failure against Crystal Palace.

Latest Duels

• Liverpool clinched a 3-1 victory in the reverse game in September last year at Molineux Stadium.
• The Reds won 32, drew 6, and lost 10 of the previous 48 home clashes against Wolves.
• We saw three or more goals in four of the last six head-to-head encounters.

Liverpool vs Wolves Prediction

Liverpool are massive favourites to get the win on Klopp’s farewell, just as the odds suggest. In terms of betting options, the Home win & Both Teams To Score pick is the best by some distance at the 2.10 odds. The Reds kept just 1 clean sheet in the last 16 league matches. They allowed at least two goals in each of the previous four league outings. The run includes three goals in Monday’s stalemate at Aston Villa. Wolves have not been pulling up any trees lately but they did welcome back the likes of Matheus Cunha and Hwang Hee-Chan to the starting lineup in recent fixtures. With this duo on the pitch, Wolves are capable of scoring against any team in the division.

We have many reasons to expect goals galore on Sunday at Anfield. Each of Liverpool’s last two league games provided six goals. Wolves conceded eight goals in the last two defeats to Manchester City and Crystal Palace. We also saw four goals in the reverse clash between these rivals in the first half of the season. We will be brave and back the Over 4.5 goals bet at the 2.37 odds.
