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:

Still, the visitors maintain their shape and they are doing a fine job of frustrating a Liverpool side which has struggled to find the net of late. The Reds have failed to score in four of their last six league games - as many times as in their previous 65.

Salah drives in from the right flank and sends across an accurate low ball for Jota, who takes up a position near the penalty spot, but the latter elects to try a flicked finish and manages to miss almost all of the ball, which just slips through his legs.
