With Diogo Jota's wife and children in attendance, it will be an emotional affair when Liverpool and Wolverhampton meet at Anfield on Saturday.

Jota enjoyed memorable spells at both clubs. He made a £45 million move from Molineux to Merseyside in September 2020. The Portugal international and his brother Andre Silva were both tragically killed in a single-car collision in July 2025.

Liverpool enters the match in sixth place after consecutive league victories, while last-place Wolves are the only Premier League side still winless. Wolverhampton have collected just two points through 17 league matches.
