Liverpool return to Molineux tonight hoping for immediate redemption after Tuesday’s painful Premier League defeat, with Arne Slot confirming he intends to name a strong side in the FA Cup clash against Wolverhampton Wanderers.The Reds were beaten 2-1 in dramatic fashion earlier this week when Andre’s stoppage-time deflection secured victory for the hosts, a moment that sparked debate about the build-up to the goal and the pressure applied in midfield.Stephen Warnock pointed to the decisive moment in the move that led to Wolves’ winner, explaining: “It was a mistake from Curtis Jones – he plays a ball into Alisson and Alisson’s never going to get any purchase on it.”Former Everton midfielder Leon Osman also highlighted Virgil van Dijk’s frustration with Rio Ngumoha during the incident, saying the captain appeared unhappy with the pressure on Andre before the shot.With another meeting between the sides arriving less than 72 hours later, the attention now turns to who will actually be available for tonight’s FA Cup encounter.With another meeting between the sides arriving less than 72 hours later, the attention now turns to who will actually be available for tonight’s FA Cup encounter.Liverpool team news ahead of Wolves clashAccording to Liverpoolfc.com, the Reds do not have any fresh injury concerns following the defeat earlier this week.However, five players remain unavailable.Stefan Bajcetic, Conor Bradley, Wataru Endo, Alexander Isak and Giovanni Leoni are still sidelined and will not feature tonight.There is some positive news regarding Florian Wirtz though.Arne Slot revealed the German attacker is nearing a return after missing the last three matches with a back injury.Our Dutch head coach said: “He trained half and half yesterday with the team.
