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:

Kilman is alive to the danger, as he reacts first when a deflected pass almost breaks for Jota: before the Liverpool forward can reach the ball just ahead of the on-rushing Sa, Kilman makes a crucial sliding tackle.

In the centre circle, Traore is sent tumbling to the turf after a trip by Jota, and a free-kick aids his efforts to carry the ball away from danger and relieve some pressure on the Wolves back four.

SAVE! Another Elliott chance; another Sa save! This time, Nunez drives in from the left towards the edge of the area before releasing the ball to the English midfielder, then the latter mishits a tame shot at the bottom-left corner, which Sa fields without much trouble.

Tsimikas stands strong to buffet a challenge from Traore on the right byline, and even earns a goal-kick for his side under pressure from the Spanish winger - to the audible delight of the Anfield crowd.

Konate escapes after being outwitted by Ait-Nouri on the left byline, as the Wolves man lays his hands on the Liverpool centre-back and is penalised by the referee - much to his team-mates' visible disgust.
