Liverpool beat Wolverhampton Wanderers 2-1 on Saturday to climb into the top four in the table and condemn Wolves to an unwanted record for the longest winless start in Premier League history with 18 games.

Liverpool labored to a 2-1 win against Wolves at Anfield on Saturday, as Florian Wirtz bagged his first goal for Liverpool and it turned out to be the winner. Ryan Gravenberch gave Liverpool a deserved lead just before half time and just over a minute later Wirtz made it 2-0 amid huge celebrations at Anfield.

But Wolves pulled a goal back a few minutes into the second half, which made the remainder of the game more nervy than it should have been. Substitute Conor Bradley made a superb block in the closing stages to prevent a Jhon Arias equaliser as Slot’s team continue to look susceptible at the back.
