Team News

Wolverhampton
  • Emmanuel Frimpong should be fit to face Liverpool despite suffering a severe facial injury last time out after it seemed he would be out for some time.
  • Karl Henry is suspended after his red card against Villa and will not partner the Arsenal loanee in midfield, so Milijas, Guedioura and Hammill will all hope to come into the side.
  • Michael Kightly impressed having returned from a loan spell at Watford and should keep his place in the side, while Hunt will hope to replace Matt Jarvis on the opposite flank.
Liverpool
  • Liverpool could rest a number of players after two tough cup ties against the Manchester clubs, with the backline having been particularly tested of late.
  • Craig Bellamy, Dirk Kuyt, Charlie Adam and Glen Johnson could all return to the starting XI for the trip to Wolves.
  • Tuesday night's clash will be the last that Luis Suarez has to miss having served 7 games of his 8-match suspension.

Prediction

  • Liverpool have played twice, overcoming the top two in the league in the cup competitions since Wolves hosted Villa in their last fixture, so the visitors could be a little fatigued come Tuesday.
  • Wolves put up a good fight against the Reds at Anfield earlier in the season, losing 2-1, but haven't beaten Liverpool at Molineux in the Premier League, failing to score in the previous 2 matches hosting Liverpool including a 3-0 defeat last season.
  • The homes side haven't won any of their last 4 games in front of their own fans, losing 3, but face a Liverpool side whose away form has slumped, losing 3 of their last 5 games on the road including a dismal 3-1 defeat at Bolton last time out in the league.
  • PREDICTION: Liverpool win 2-1
