The No.66, who returned from a short injury lay-off with an outing in Wednesday's Merseyside derby, debuted in the competition back in December 2016 during a 3-0 win for the Reds away at Middlesbrough.
Liverpool have won 15 of their last 16 Premier League meetings with Wolves, with the exception being a 3-0 loss at Molineux in February 2023.
The Reds have won nine of their 10 Premier League fixtures at Anfield against them, conceding just three goals in the process (seven clean sheets).
Team Comparison — English Premier League
Arne Slot's team have scored at least twice in each of their last nine Premier League home games (22 goals overall). The Reds last netted at least two goals in more successive Anfield matches in a single league season back in 2013-14, through a run of 14 from October to April that term.
If Slot's men score more than once in this game they will set a new club record of 17 successive Anfield matches in which they have scored two or more goals. They currently share the record with the 1893-94 season.
Cody Gakpo, who is a doubt for the game, has scored in each of his last six Premier League starts at Anfield (seven goals). Only three different Reds have scored in at least seven successive home starts in the competition: Fernando Torres in May 2008 (eight), Luis Suarez in January 2014 (eight), and Mohamed Salah twice (seven in April 2018 and eight in May 2023).
Salah has scored 100 goals in 139 Premier League appearances at Anfield, one of just four players to score 100 or more at a single venue in the competition, along with Thierry Henry at Highbury (114), Sergio Aguero at Etihad Stadium (106) and Wayne Rooney at Old Trafford (101).
The Egyptian has 10 goal involvements in 13 Premier League appearances against Wolves (five goals, five assists), with four of his five goals against them being winners.
No Liverpool player has ever scored a hat-trick against Sunday's opponents in any competition. The last man to net twice was Sadio Mane in the 2-0 victory in the final game of the 2018-19 campaign.
Wolves have lost all seven of their Premier League away matches against sides starting the day top of the table.
The clubs have met once before on February 16, with Liverpool beating Wolves 4-1 at home in 1963 thanks to braces from Kevin Lewis and Ian St John.
Not since November 1969 has there been a goalless draw at Anfield between the teams.
