Liverpool To End Years Of Premier League Pain! Sadio Mané To Take The Golden Boot Title! Team News. Comments. Stats & Prediction.
By: Marc Gingell
Matching Tuesday’s amazing Champions League Anfield finale could take years! Hardened pros like James Milner in tears. Local boy Trent Alexander-Arnold walking around the pitch excited dazed and amazed all at the same time.
The whole Liverpool squad stood in front of the Kop totally immersed in a spontaneous and emotional rendition of ‘You’ll Never Walk Alone.’ A hairs on the back of the neck raising moment with Brazilian Fabinho, in his first season at Liverpool, loving the moment and singing at the top of his voice.
Barcelona fans cried. Liverpool’s didn’t want to leave. They sang their hearts out and that included a smiling Kenny Dalglish and his clan.
So will it take years to recreate another Anfield moment like? Or will the Liverpool squad, face the Kop again on Sunday, for take two!

Opta Stats
- Wolves have already beaten Chelsea, Tottenham, Arsenal and Manchester United in the Premier League this season. Only two teams to finish lower than sixth have beaten as many as five of the sides to finish in the top six in a single Premier League campaign – Southampton in 1997-98 and West Ham in 2015-16.
- Liverpool could remain unbeaten at home in a top-flight campaign for the eighth different time, and for the first time in consecutive seasons since the 1978-79/1979-80 campaigns.
- Wolves’ points tally of 57 in the Premier League this season is the most by a newly-promoted side since Ipswich Town won 66 points and finished 5th in the 2000-01 season.
- Liverpool’s Sadio Mane has scored more home goals than any other player in the Premier League this season (16).
- Liverpool full-backs Trent Alexander-Arnold (12) and Andrew Robertson (11) have been involved in more Premier League goals than any other defenders this season. Meanwhile, Wolves’ Matt Doherty sits joint-third in this list with nine (4 goals, 5 assists).
- Liverpool could still secure their 19th top-flight league title, depending on Manchester City’s result at Brighton & Hove Albion. It would be their first league title since 1989-90 and they would be the seventh different team to win the Premier League title since it began in 1992.
- Liverpool have won six of their nine Premier League meetings with Wolves (D2 L1), including each of the last four in a row.
