Liverpool vs Wolves betting tips: Firmino to continue scoring run but visitors to net in tough Anfield test
THE madness of Christmas over, we move into the New Year period and another packed schedule of fixtures.
Pep Guardiola might not be a fan, but we love the relentless holiday period - and the final game of a packed weekend sees Liverpool host Wolves.
Liverpool vs Wolves, 5.30pm
WE'RE not in the New Year yet, but we have our champions.
Liverpool have gained a reputation for choking since the turn of the Millennium, but this team will not blow a 13-point lead come the end of the campaign.
Their performance at Leicester - the team closest to them in the table remember - was as ruthless as it was entertaining.
Jurgen Klopp's side are a joy to watch and could conceivably be the first since Arsenal's Invincibles to go through a Premier League season unbeaten.
If they are to slip up, it's likely to be a game like this, against a Wolves side who constantly punch above their weight and love playing the Big Six.
Nuno Santo's side continue to excel after a slow start and will be on a high after a hugely dramatic victory over Man City.
Is there anyone seriously backing Liverpool to lose though, even with Wolves at 10/1? Of course not.
When you're putting down your hard-earned, you of course want the bet to come off and don't want to just throw cash at a blind punt.
That's why we're going to go a little bit clever here and look for the value - although we don't mind any of you topping up your acca with the 2/7 on Liverpool.
Before the 2-0 win over Watford, Liverpool hadn't kept a clean sheet at home since MAY - when Wolves came here last and lost by the same scoreline.
So why - against a Wolves team who are superb on the road - is both teams to score priced up at 10/11? Dive on that.
We fancy Nuno's side to dig in at Anfield and there's value to be had in the first half markets.
Liverpool aren't always the fastest starters and might have to be patient.
So the 20/23 on Wolves double chance at half-time looks a steal.
Roberto Firmino has looked lethal in recent weeks, starring in the Club World Cup and again in the Foxes demolition.
He's 6/4 at score at anytime, whilst Mo Salah and Sadio Mane are both odds-on.
For us, he's the man to be on.
SunSport's best bets
