PR - Football - England - Premier League

Wolverhampton had a turbulent Summer, with many important players leaving the club. Manager Julen Lopetegui also departed, so the former Bournemouth coach Gary O'Neil took the team. The results are poor, they lost to Man United, Brighton and Crystal Palace, but won 1:0 against Everton. O'Neil has almost all players available, only Joe Hodge is doubtful.

Liverpool have three wins and one draw after the first four rounds. The victory against Newcastle at St James Park should be mentioned. Darwin Nunez scored two goals in the finish of the match and secured the victory. But key defender Virgil van Dijk was sent off in the first half. Liverpool captain has already missed the clash with Aston Villa, but received an additional ban for his protests even after the VAR check. His absence is a huge handicap and Klopp has big issues in defense as the second central defender Ibrahima Konate and full-back Trent Alexander-Arnold are doubtful due to injuries. This is the reason why I think the Wolves could upset Liverpool. The international break is also a problem for Klopp, many of the players will be tired after long travels. I think Wolves will not lose.
