Really is a time to be jolly for the Reds and Klopp. But celebrations must be kept inside as they take a trip to a tricky place belonging to the Wolves.
The last man standing is Jurgen Klopp. Will he be hunted down by the pack of Wolves who have being the undoing for some of the big six and is the team I would say are the thieves of the night in this English Premier League term.
A big test inside the Molineux Stadium for the log leaders. An unbeaten run to keep, three points to take and keep the lead, even extend it and keep looking down on the rest of the league. That’s besides Man City, who let’s Liverpool know… If they miss they lose. One can go on in saying, a draw in this tight fight is as bad as a loss.
Little room for error in the small ring featuring Liverpool and Manchester City, respectively, and each game comes with its own test for these two powerhouses. Wolves, being one of the best test offered by a so-called “smaller” club.
Here's how Wolves line-up for tonight's @premierleague clash against @LFC. #WOLLIV

The home team Wolves
All the points this team has stolen from some of the big six, they’ve literally had a hand in the what goes on at the summit of the table. In this very venue the home team has rightfully taken points from former champs, Man City (1-1), Man United (1-1) Arsenal (1-1) and the hardest knock was handed to Chelsea (2-1).
Since having gone six games without a win, they’ve now got three wins on the bounce back, Chelsea being one of those victims in the mix. The home side unfortunately have to do this without one of their key ingredients, Diogo Jota.

The travelling team Liverpool
All or nothing. If you want it bad enough, every game has to be three points. That, or no loss must be maintained. If Pep and City are offered any space to get back on top of the table, they will take it and need no second asking.
The Reds have one man heavy (James Milner) and are still a bad few casualties down in the defensive line. However, Clyne’s performance in the old English derby, almost a week a ago was worthy of a nod from the manager for tonight perhaps.
So many other options for Klopp as his team reaches red-hot form at a great point in the season. Klopp, well aware of his opponents and knows they not sleeping on same, same. They all about changing things up.
First meeting for Klopp. So an interesting encounter indeed.
