BTTS - Yes

Both teams have scored in five of Wolves' last six outings.

Bottom of the table Wolves play host to title-challengers Liverpool in the Premier League's last kick-off on Saturday.

The Reds head into this game as strong favourites to secure all three points but Wolves will be desperate to claim their first league win of the season.

Wolves vs Liverpool prediction: Will both teams score on Saturday?

Key Stats

  • Wolves have only failed to score in one of their seven competitive games so far this season.
  • Only once have Liverpool failed to score in a game this season.
  • Over 2.5 goals have been produced in four of Wolves' last six fixtures.
  • Four of Liverpool's last five outings have witnessed at least three goals.

Correct score prediction: Wolves 1-3 Liverpool

Liverpool have scored three or more goals in four of their last five matches across all competitions and have only kept one clean sheet in their last four attempts, so you can see why we've backed the visitors to claim a 3-1 win at Molineux.

  • HOME: 8/1 (9.00) – 11.1%
  • DRAW: 23/5 (5.60) – 17.9%
  • AWAY: 2/5 (1.40) – 71.4%

*odds from Ladbrokes, subject to change

Liverpool are the expected winner of this game with a probability of 71.4% and we can't argue with the bookmakers on this one.

Wolves preview: No wins in opening five

Wolves' woes continued last weekend when they went down 3-1 at Aston Villa.

Gary O'Neil's side have only picked up a single point from their first five league games and were knocked out of the EFL Cup by Brighton last week, so the pressure is mounting on the Wolves boss.

Yerson Mosquera, Boubacar, Bastien Menadjou, Toti Gomes, Enso Medina and Sasa Kalajdzic could all miss the Liverpool game this weekend due to injury.

Predicted lineup: Johnstone (GK), Dawson, Semedo, Ait-Nouri, Mosquera, Lemina, Bellegarde, J. Gomes, Andre, Strand Larsen & Cunha

Liverpool preview: Sit second in the table

Arne Slot's side recovered well from their shock defeat at home to Nottingham Forest in the Premier League by winning their next three games in league and cup against AC Milan, Bournemouth and West Ham.

The Reds knocked West Ham out of the EFL Cup in midweek, running out 5-1 winners and head to Molineux full of confidence.

Harvey Elliott will miss the game but first-choice shot-stopper Alisson Becker could return to the side.

Predicted lineup: Kelleher (GK), van Dijk, Robertson, Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Szoboszlai, Mac Allister, Gravenberch, Salah, Díaz & Nunez

Each of the Colombian's goals have arrived in his opening five Premier League games and the former Porto man has also chipped in with an assist.

Liverpool's Colombian star is in fine form

We're backing Diaz to score again this weekend to help guide Liverpool to yet another win that will keep Wolves on one point.
