Liverpool hosts Wolves at Anfield on Saturday afternoon, aiming to continue their winning streak.
Arne Slot’s team has achieved three consecutive victories in all competitions, helping to stabilize their season after a tough autumn. However, the Reds will be missing several key offensive players for this match.
Alexander Isak has joined Mohamed Salah on the injury list, creating a challenge for Slot in selecting his attacking lineup. Despite these missing players, Liverpool is optimistic about beating a Wolves team currently at the bottom of the table.
Arne Slot revealed that Alexander Isak has undergone surgery for a broken leg, which will keep him out for a long time. Mohamed Salah is at AFCON, and Cody Gakpo is uncertain due to a muscle issue. Federico Chiesa is expected to start on the right wing for his first Premier League game of the season.
In midfield, Dominik Szoboszlai is suspended for one match, so Alexis Mac Allister is likely to move into the number 10 position. Florian Wirtz might also play centrally, while Curtis Jones could partner with Ryan Gravenberch in a deeper midfield role. Defensively, Ibrahima Konaté missed training but is expected to team up with Virgil van Dijk. Lastly, Jeremie Frimpong will likely start at right-back if Conor Bradley isn’t fit.
Liverpool predicted XI: Alisson; Frimpong, Konaté, Van Dijk, Kerkez; Gravenberch, Jones; Chiesa, Mac Allister, Wirtz; Ekitiké
The Premier League match is set for Saturday, 27 December 2025, kicking off at 3:00 pm GMT.
This match will not be broadcast live in the UK due to the 3:00 pm Saturday blackout. However, highlights will be available on the BBC’s Match of the Day.
