Liverpool take on the visitors Wolverhampton in the round 18 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Saturday, December 27th at Anfield, Liverpool.
After spending nearly half a billion in the summer, the team endured a terrible run in the autumn, losing nine of twelve matches. On top of that, Salah publicly criticized both the management and the coach personally. Nevertheless, the parties have since reconciled, and by winter, Liverpool gradually regained form. Back-to-back Premier League victories for the first time since September, along with three consecutive wins across all competitions, suggest that Arne Slot’s side may have finally found their stride. Liverpool typically excel during this period, having won 17 of their last 20 top-flight matches between Christmas and New Year’s Day (D2, L1). At Anfield, they have remained unbeaten in 31 of their last 32 league games played between Boxing Day and New Year’s Eve (W25, D6), though their only loss in that stretch came against Wolves back in 2010.

Wolves, on the other hand, will be eager to see the year end. Wolves had problems at Molineux last season as well, but the arrival of manager Vítor Pereira helped the team climb to 16th place with 42 points by spring. In the new campaign, however, nothing has worked, neither under Pereira nor under Edwards – just two draws and numerous defeats.Their 2-0 defeat to Brentford last weekend extended their Premier League winless run to 21 games (D3, L18), a sequence only surpassed by three teams in the competition’s history. With just two points from their 17 league matches this season (D2, L15), Wolves are on track to become only the second team in English Football League history to accumulate so few points after 18 games, following Newport County in 1970/71. They would also join Bolton Wanderers’ 1902/03 side as the only teams to start a top-flight campaign without a single win in their opening 18 matches.
Out of around fifteen head-to-head encounters, Wolves have managed only one victory, losing all five of the most recent matches.
Prediction for the match: Liverpool to win with -1.5 handicap.
