Overview
- Liverpool confirm Alexander Isak has undergone ankle/fibula surgery and will be out for the foreseeable future.
- Wolves arrive bottom with two points from 17 league games and a 10-match losing streak, with Toti Gomes sidelined for weeks with a hamstring injury, Rob Edwards said.
- The match is scheduled for Saturday, December 27 at 3pm GMT at Anfield and will not be shown live in the UK due to the broadcast blackout.
- Liverpool manage major absences, with Mohamed Salah at AFCON, Dominik Szoboszlai suspended, and doubts over Cody Gakpo, Conor Bradley and Ibrahima Konaté, according to team news reports.
- This is the first meeting between the clubs since Diogo Jota’s death, adding an emotional backdrop to an otherwise lopsided fixture on form.
