Wolves vs Liverpool team news and confirmed line-ups ahead of Premier League fixture today
A meeting of contrasting attacks takes place on Saturday as Wolverhampton Wanderers host Liverpool in the Premier League.
Under Bruno Lage, Wolves have improved defensively this season but the front line has misfired; only Norwich have scored fewer and only two players in the squad have more than one league goal this term.
By contrast, Liverpool have netted 10 goals more than any other club, Mohamed Salah alone has outscored Wolves as a team and they have struck four times in each of their last three league fixtures - Wolves have scored four in the last six.
The hosts lost their first three home matches of the league campaign, but are unbeaten in the four since then.
Here’s everything you need to know ahead of the match.
When is the game?
The match kicks off at 3pm GMT on Saturday, 4 December at Molineux.
