Liverpool’s Starting XI vs. Wolves Revealed as Key Changes Made in Attack and Defense
Liverpool manager Arne Slot has confirmed his team selection for today’s Premier League clash against Wolves at Anfield, making notable adjustments in both attack and defense. The most significant change sees Diogo Jota return to the starting lineup for his first league start in four months.
With Cody Gakpo sidelined due to a minor injury, Luis Díaz shifts to the left wing, making room for Jota to lead the attack against his former club. The Portuguese forward has been out of the starting XI since October 20, when he suffered an upper-body injury after an awkward collision with Chelsea’s Tosin Adarabioyo. That incident forced him off the field early in Liverpool’s 2-1 win, and he has since been working his way back to full fitness.
Meanwhile, in defense, Trent Alexander-Arnold also returns to the starting XI after missing the last two matches with a thigh injury. He made a brief appearance as a substitute in Liverpool’s recent Merseyside derby victory at Goodison Park, but now regains his place in the lineup as Liverpool look to strengthen their position at the top of the Premier League table.
