Follow live coverage as Liverpool face Wolves in the Premier League today.

Striker Darwin Nunez was fit after a shoulder injury and replaced Cody Gakpo in the forward line, Kostas Tsimikas came in for left-back Andy Robertson and the whole midfield was changed from Saturday’s draw at Crystal Palace with Fabinho, Stefan Bajcetic and Harvey Elliott all starting.

Wolves forward Matheus Cunha missed out with an ankle problem so Joao Moutinho returned as the one change from the draw with Fulham last time out.

Liverpool centre-back Ibrahima Konate made his first appearance in a month after being put straight into the team to face Wolves after recovering from a hamstring injury as manager Jurgen Klopp made six changes.

We will bring you all the action and updates from today's game in the live blog below:

After a short delay, Tsimikas delivers an outswinging ball into the box from the free-kick, but it is easily cleared away to safety by the Wolves defence.

Elliott hits the deck under an aerial challenge from Moutinho and earns his side a free-kick around 30 yards out from goal. The Wolves players - and fans - are far from happy about the decision.

A series of fouls in midfield further sap the life from an increasingly drab affair, in which Elliott's chance has been the only highlight for quite some time.

MISS! Liverpool spurn a great chance to score the opener, as Jota feeds Nunez near the left byline, and the forward's cut-back picks out Elliot in the centre of the box. However, the young midfielder is then guilty of a glaring miss, as he steers his header wide of the right-hand post from close range!

There's little sustained attacking intent from either side at the moment, and they are cancelling each other out in this fourth meeting between them already this year.

After Sa carries the ball over the right byline under pressure form Salah and concedes a corner, his unconvincing punch from the subsequent set-piece helps Wolves clear any immediate danger.
