Wolverhampton Form & Balance Check
For Wolves, the programme looks extremely challenging between now and the end of the year. Liverpool, Brighton, Chelsea, Watford, Arsenal and Man United are the next opponents. Due to these upcoming tasks, it would have been an advantage if Wolves had won their last home game against Burnley FC. Against the club from the bottom half of the table, coach Bruno Lage’s men had to settle for a goalless 0-0 draw. Overall, however, the form curve is pointing in the right direction. The Wolves have only suffered one defeat in their last five games.
The minimalists of the league
Without any question, there hasn’t been much spectacle in Wolves’ play so far this season. If we look at the goal difference alone, we know what to expect in the upcoming fixture. It is 12:12 and in the last two games there was only a 0:0. On the one hand, Wolverhampton’s offensive is frighteningly harmless. On the other hand, Bruno Lage’s team has the third-best defence in the league, along with Liverpool.
Wolverhampton facts & analysis
– Last two games only 0:0
– First 12 goals conceded
– Currently stand in 6th place
Liverpool Form & Balance Check
Liverpool FC are currently rolling through the Premier League like a bulldozer. The Reds have won all of their last four games and have done so in inimitable style. The Merseyside derby against Everton FC was a convincing 4:1 victory. Especially in the first minutes Liverpool was at least one class better. Liverpool’s poor season last year seems to have been forgotten and this year they are looking to bring silverware back to Anfield Road. We can be curious whether the Reds can take back the title.
Mo Salah in the form of his life
Liverpool FC’s current form is closely linked to the name of Mohamed Salah. The Egyptian is the Reds’ life insurance and this season, the 7th ranked player in the world football rankings is coming up with a staggering 19 goals and seven assists in 19 competitive games. Against Everton FC, the right-winger almost single-handedly ensured the decision with his brace. All in all, the Reds’ offensive is really fun again this year. After 14 matchdays, LFC already have an incredible 43 league goals.
Liverpool facts & analysis
– Last four games won
– First 12 goals conceded
– Already scored 43 league goals
Predicted line-up – last update on 2 December 2021
The Wolves will be back to their usual 3-4-3 this coming Saturday, with the attacking back three in particular full of power and athleticism. Traore will again come through his pace and if he brings the crosses to Jimenez, then the strong-headed Mexican can create danger. For the Reds from Liverpool, coach Jürgen Klopp is again spoilt for choice. We are very sure that the German coach will send the same eleven on the pitch as in the 4:1 against Everton FC.
