Liverpool team confirmed to face Wolves in the FA Cup at Molineux.
Liverpool have made four changes for the FA Cup fifth-round tie against Wolverhampton Wanderers.
The Reds face Rob Edwards’ side for a second time in four days at Molineux, having suffered a 2-1 loss on Tuesday.
Arne Slot has opted to rotate his team, with 17-year-old Rio Ngumoha handed a start. The winger has been making an impact off the bench lately, hitting the post earlier this week when the score was locked at 1-1.
Ngumoha replaces Hugo Ekitike, with Cody Gakpo set to spearhead the attack. Meanwhile, there appears to be three changes to defence. Andy Robertson comes in for Milos Kerkez at left-back, while Curtis Jones may operate as a makeshift right-back with Jeremie Frimpong dropping to the bench.
Ibrahima Konate is also rested, with Joe Gomez coming in to partner Virgil van Dijk at centre-half. Meanwhile, Slot’s substitute options have been boosted with Florian Wirtz back in the squad after an injury.
Liverpool: Alisson, Gomez, Van Dijk, Szoboszlai, Mac Allister, Salah, Jones, Gakpo, Robertson, Gravenberch, Ngumoha.
Subs: Mamardashvili, Konate, Kerkez, Wirtz, Chiesa, Ekitike, Frimpong, Nyoni, Morrison.
