Game Preview
With some key players leaving, Wolves’ season has been derailed just as they were getting going and could have a major impact on their goal of finishing in the league’s mid table. Manager Jule Lopetegui’s unexpected resignation rocked the midlands club before the start of the season.
Given their status as treble winners, Manchester City were always going to be successful in their pursuit of one of Wolves’ gems, Matheus Nunes. After only one victory in the Premier League’s first four games before the international break, Wolves will need to reevaluate their strategy.
The match against Liverpool that kicks off the weekend early is Wolves’ best chance to make a statement and pull off the weekend’s biggest upset by defeating the red-hot Reds.
Joe Hodge, a defensive midfielder for Gary O’Neal, will not be available for Saturday’s game against Liverpool. The midfielder has been out since August 31 with a hamstring injury. By the month’s end, Hodge should be fully recovered.
Liverpool’s transfer woes have been replaced by an encouraging start to the season. The Reds have found their footing after an opening day 1-1 draw against Chelsea and have won their last three games.
Two of Liverpool’s three victories required a comeback from a deficit with ten men on the field. The victory away at Newcastle stands out as the most stunning. After Virgil Van Dijk was sent off and the home team took an early lead through Gordon, Klopp’s men settled down, took control of the contest, and scored a spectacular winning goal late in the second half.
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp will be hoping his team is ready to go for Saturday morning’s early kickoff against Wolves at Molineux after the international break.
Thiago Alcantara, Curtis Jones, Trent Alexander-Arnold, and Ibrahima Konate are all set to return to the Liverpool lineup when the Premier League resumes after the international break, so Jurgen Klopp will need to give them late-game tests. After getting ejected at Newcastle and acting unprofessionally toward the officials, captain Virgin van Dijk will continue to serve his extended sentence.
