Liverpool takes on the visitors Wolverhampton in the round 38 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Sunday, May 22nd at Anfield (Liverpool).
Good result was reached by Jurgen Klopp and his team last weekend. First, they are one step closer to their goal by winning the cup final again. Again it turned out to beat Chelsea in the decisive match, and again only in a difficult, protracted penalty shootout. Also, West Ham was able to trip up a competitor, Manchester City. The Hammers failed to keep the victory, but the final 2-2 again reduced the distance between the giants. Moreover, on Wednesday it was possible to arrange a strong-willed victory over Southampton on the road. There, the German manager took risks by fielding a rather experimental line-up, with Tsimikas, Joe Gomez, Curtis Jones, Milner, Elliott and Minamino at the start, but managed to achieve an important 2-1.

Wolverhampton lost some motivation for the last round. There is still progress, and quite serious, compared to the previous season, when they finished 13th. The last good segment was in March - early April, when there were 3 wins in 4 rounds. This was followed by 3 defeats in a row, and far from the giants, Newcastle, Burnley and Brighton. Yes, then Wolverhampton showed their teeth, drawing with Chelsea, and also won back 2 goals in the end. But more about the real form of the Wolves, perhaps, says 1-5 with Manchester City and only 1-1 with relegated Watford.
Wolverhampton last won a head-to-head in 2019, and then in the cup. After that, Liverpool won 6 times in a row, including putting the squeeze on the opponent in December due to the late goal of their “wild card”, Origi. Liverpool, in addition to Salah and van Dijk taking off in the Cup final, also lost Joe Gomez. Fabinho is also questionable. Wolverhampton will not have Nelson Samedo, Kilman and Saiss. Bookmakers have no doubt that Liverpool will beat an unmotivated opponent, the only question is, what will be the score? The option with a negative handicap looks quite solid.
Prediction for the match: Liverpool to win with -2.0 handicap.
