Prediction: 1-2
Liverpool
Wolves and Liverpool face each other at Molineux Stadium in the Premier League round 5 curtain-raiser. Wolverhampton aim to recover from a 3-2 loss to Crystal Palace, but they face yet another uphill task against the Reds. Joe Hodge continues to miss out with a hamstring problem, while fellow midfielder Tommy Doyle should be fit for the match. Korea forward Hee-Chan Hwang is pushing for his first start of the season after scoring as a substitute against the Eagles.
The Reds, on the other hand, are eyeing their fourth consecutive league win. Liverpool have been scoring goals for fun of late and given Wolves’ shaky defence, away triumph should be considered. A man to watch in the away team will be Mo Salah, who sealed the victory against Aston Villa before the international break. Towering centre-back Virgil van Dijk is banned for the match, while both Ibrahima Konate and Thiago Alcantara remain in the recovery room.
Highlighted Player (Mohamed Salah):
Mohamed Salah is considered one of the best African players. Salah began his senior career at El Mokawloon, scoring 11 goals in 41 league appearances for the club and in 2012 he moved to Europe, signing a four-year deal with Swiss side Basel.
The pacey winger, who is capable of playing as a striker as well was producing outstanding displays for the RotBlau from 2012 to 2014 and, as a result, Chelsea chiefs decided to sign him on 26 January, 2015 for a fee of £11 million. Mohamed Salah, though, failed to impress in the Premier league and one year later he was sent on loan to Fiorentina.
After making 16 league appearances for the Viola in the Serie A, the left-footed winger signed a loan deal with Roma on 6 August, 2015. The Romans made the contract permanent on 3 August, 2016. Speaking of his international career, Salah made his Egypt debut on 3 September, 2011 in a 2-1 loss to Sierra Leone. It has to be noted that he was named Roma’s player of the season (2015/2016).
