The Premier League feast reignites as Liverpool host Wolves in the 3rd round of the EFL Cup. Liverpool, as the previous champions, have the important task of defending their title, and their fighting spirit is high. Given the loss in the last round of league matches, the team is in desperate need of a win to boost their morale and fight for promotion. Wolves, on the other hand, have a poor record in the Premier League and are in a relegation crisis, making it difficult for them to beat Liverpool's offense in the cup. Looking back at the last 7 meetings between the two sides, Liverpool have led at half-time on 5 occasions, and a home win at half-time is on the cards. (Live on TV myTV SUPER at 4am Sunday)
Although Liverpool's performance was poor at the beginning of the season, their recent form has rebounded and they have won 4 of their last 5 EPL matches. Despite a 1-3 loss to Brentford on the road last time out, they will be able to bounce back at home this time around. As a matter of fact, Liverpool is actively making progress in the second half of the season, and the newly joined 23-year-old Dutch scorer Gap is expected to show his value with his eye-catching performance. In addition, the team's young talent such as 18-year-old midfield star Basti, Gudis Jones, Fabio Cahualu and so on all have excellent strength, strong reserve lineup, rotation lineup is guaranteed.
Wolves in relegation crisis
Wolverhampton Wanderers are currently in relegation crisis, the primary goal of this season is relegation, and the cup matches may be put down for a while. Facing the raging Liverpool, Wolves' intention is doubtful. This season, they failed to win against Tottenham, Manchester City, Chelsea, Arsenal, Manchester United and other strong teams, and I am afraid that this time, facing Liverpool, the first half may be difficult to sustain, and a half-time home win can be expected.
