Wolverhampton vs Liverpool 17.01.2023

A 1-0 victory over West Ham United at Molineux Stadium marked Wolves’ fourth straight game without suffering a defeat. Fans are longing to see their team eliminate the reigning FA Cup Champions, Liverpool, from the tournament especially after realizing the sloppy play from Merseyside’s backline.

Wolves played brilliantly in the first leg, finishing with a 2-2 stalemate at Anfield and proving to be a fortress but this game may be challenging for them because their opponent has been severely hurt in recent encounters. We still believe Wolverhampton might be able to take advantage of Liverpool’s lost connections at backline to score one or two goals as they meet up for a rematch.

Jurgen Klopp is under huge pressure to recover the trust that has begun to be lost from their supporters despite an apologetic gesture he displayed during their recent 3-0 loss to Brighton & Hove Albion. The FA Cup has never been easy when they met Wolves but still the determination to keep their hope alive for at least a trophy this season could waive all past misery. We anticipate to see a fierce goal-hunting in this fixture.

We are predicting Both Teams to Score and at least 3 goals to be scored.
