Money line (ML)
“LEAN” to the LIVERPOOL -(240).
I just don’t love the value here which makes this a lean. There’s no reason why Liverpool won’t continue its dominant trend in this one.
Superstar F Mohamed Salah has been terrific and should once again lead his side. His pace and play should have him as the Ballon d’ Or favorite.
Liverpool will be down starting F Roberto Firmino. His absence hasn’t caused any struggles as of late. Given the Wolves scored under a goal per game and allow under a goal per game.
BOTH TEAMS NOT TO SCORE (-122) seems like good value. However, you’re betting against the Wolves attack, but often overlooked, Liverpool’s third-best defense justifies the value.
Over/Under (O/U)
BET on the UNDER 2.5 (+130) as two of the best four defenses in the league will be squaring off. Firmino’s absence hasn’t slowed Liverpool down and betting against its attack typically isn’t wise.
However, Liverpool has tallied just 3 goals in their two games against the top defenses in the EPL which is why some sluggish play, especially after a midweek game, could make sense.
It’s a lean, but it’s the only one with good value here.
