Fabinho, Wijnaldum, Henderson

In the Man United game, we saw Fabinho feature in his first match since November as he was subbed on in the second half. There’s a very good chance that the Brazilian will start against Wolves and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain who was visibly upset after being subbed off last weekend, will have to settle for a place on the bench. Fabinho was in fine form for Liverpool before he got injured and his return is a massive boost for the club.

Both Jordan Henderson and Georginio Wijnaldum were brilliant against Man United with the former being adjudged Man of the Match. The duo should start against Wolves and will be eager to produce impressive performances.

While many fans would love to see a more attacking player in the midfield trio the manager has tended to go with dependability and defensive stability rather than creativity in the unit for big games.

This is one of the toughest matchups left in the 16 remaining Premier League fixtures. Keeping the unbeaten run going will be the top priority.
