Liverpool vs Wolves: Prediction, kick off time, TV, live stream, team news, h2h results - preview today

Liverpool can lift the Premier League title for the second time in three years if they beat Wolves on Sunday and Manchester City fail to win at home to Aston Villa.

A one-point deficit and worse goal difference means only victory for the Reds will deliver their 20th league title to go with their Carabao Cup and FA Cup crowns, ahead of the Champions League final against Real Madrid later this month.

Jurgen Klopp’s side engineered a 2-1 win at Southampton in midweek to keep their hopes alive while the manager rested a number of his star players.

Standing in their way of a crack at City’s lead is a Wolves team which last won in the league at Anfield in December 2010, when Mick McCarthy’s side got the better of Roy Hodgson’s Reds.

Liverpool vs Wolves prediction

Can Wolves spring a huge shock at Anfield to hand Manchester City the title? It seems unlikely but so much of this game could depend on events at the Etihad - as an easy stroll for the leaders could reduce the hosts’ urgency and open up a chance for Wolves.

Still, Liverpool must maintain momentum ahead of the Champions League final no matter what happens with their title rivals.

A 3-1 Liverpool win.
