Liverpool are set to face Wolverhampton Wanderers at Anfield on Sunday night, with both hoping for a positive outcome. The Reds would hope Manchester City drop points against Aston Villa, which would see them lift the Premier League title ahead of the UCL final against Real Madrid.
Jurgen Klopp’s side were victorious over their rivals Chelsea in the FA Cup final. The Reds then managed to grind out a 2-1 win against Southampton and are now desperate to win the next fixture against Wolves if they are to have any hope of lifting the Premier League trophy.
Wolverhampton Wanderers remained grounded at 1-1 with Norwich City last weekend, which gives them the drive to return to winning ways in the upcoming encounter and finish strong.
