Liverpool vs Wolves LIVE: Premier League team news, line-ups and more with Mohamed Salah on the bench

Wolves, who have scored 37 league goals this season, could become just the third team to finish in the top eight of the Premier League despite scoring fewer than 40 times, emulating Fulham in 2008-09 and Burnley in 2017-18.

They have not conceded a first-half goal in 17 Premier League away games since Leicester’s Jamie Vardy scored against them on the opening weekend.

Man City have lost just one of their last 27 Premier League games, while they are unbeaten in 11 since losing 3-2 at home to Spurs in February.

Their only final-day defeat in their last 13 campaigns came at home to Norwich City in 2012-13 and they have triumphed in all five of their final league games of the season under Guardiola by an aggregate score of 20-1.

The Citizens can also equal the club league record of 22 clean sheets in a single campaign, last set in 1999 in the third tier.

Aston Villa are winless in their last 16 matches versus the Premier League leaders, losing the previous seven by an aggregate score of 21-1.

They could win their final-day game in consecutive seasons for the first time since 1998, following a 2-1 victory over Chelsea in 2020-21.

However, they have triumphed in just one of their previous 15 final-day away fixtures in the Premier League, a 3-1 win at Chelsea in 2002.

On Sunday, Liverpool Football Club will head into their final match of the Premier League season knowing that – while it’s not in their own hands – one more win could see them end the day as champions. That would complete a remarkable treble, having won both domestic cups already this season.

Next weekend, the Reds will be in another all-or-nothing encounter, playing Real Madrid in the Champions League final in Paris, a day which could see the Merseyside club crowned kings of Europe for the seventh time and add a third – or, improbably, outrageously, a fourth – piece of silverware to the annual collection.

They are right now at the pinnacle of the world game, one of the best-run off the pitch and one of the most enthralling to watch on it.

While that overall progression and growth is unquestionably the work of many, reaching this stage, with this consistency, would be utterly impossible without one binding individual: Jurgen Klopp.

Liverpool are unbeaten in their last 22 league games at Anfield – 17 wins, five draws – scoring 53 goals and conceding just 10 in that run.

If they avoid defeat on Sunday it will be the fifth time they have completed a Premier League season without a single home defeat, matching the record set by Chelsea.

Wolves have lost their final fixture in six of their seven Premier League campaigns, winning the other against Sunderland in 2010.

But, they are winless in six league matches – two draws, four defeats – their longest such run under Bruno Lage. They have also lost eight of their last 13 league games – three wins, two draws – as many defeats as in their opening 24 league fixtures.

Man City are attempting to secure their fourth Premier League title under Pep Guardiola, a tally bettered only by Sir Alex Ferguson’s 13. It would make Guardiola the outright leader for English top-flight titles among non-British managers, going one clear of both Arsene Wenger and Jose Mourinho.

Guardiola has won the title in nine of his previous 12 top-flight seasons as a manager: three times each with Barcelona, Bayern Munich and City.

Steven Gerrard has lost 11 of his 26 Premier League fixtures as Aston Villa manager, equalling his total number of defeats in 118 league games in charge of Rangers

Villa have also won just one of their 21 Premier League away games against the league leaders – three draws, 17 defeats – they beat Leeds United 2-1 in January 2000.

There’s no Mo Salah in the Liverpool line-up but he does make the bench for Jurgen Klopp’s men. There are seven changes from the team that beat Southampton as Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andy Robertson return to the back line. In midfield Jordan Henderson, Thiago Alcantara and Naby Keita replace Curtis Jones, James Milner and Harvey Elliott whilst Takumi Minamino and Roberto Firmino drop out in favour of Sadio Mane and Luis Diaz.

Bruno Lage swaps out two players for Wolves as Leander Dendoncker and Jose Sa return to the starting XI in place of John Ruddy and Hwang Hee-chan.

Pep Guardiola makes two changes to the City team that drew with West Hamlast time out. Jack Grealish and Oleksandr Zinchenko drop out with John Stones and Phil Foden preferred.

Steven Gerrard also makes tow changes to his Aston Villa side. Emi Martinez and Carney Chukwuemeka are replaced with Robin Olsen and Philippe Coutinho.
