Liverpool's quest to secure Champions League soccer next season continues at Molineux.

The Reds are taking on Wolves in the Premier League, three days before they face the same opposition — at the same stadium — in the FA Cup. Arne Slot's players come into Tuesday's game in great form, having thrashed West Ham 5-2 at Anfield on Saturday.

Liverpool is currently fifth in the Premier League table, three points behind both Manchester United in third and Aston Villa in fourth, and three points ahead of Chelsea in sixth. All three of those teams aren't in action until Wednesday.

Slot on Wolves challenge

Speaking ahead of Tuesday's game, Slot said: "It’s not unusual that we play three games in seven days for us.

"That’s probably the fourth or fifth time this season that we have to do this. Does it bring a challenge? Maybe for the second game a little bit more because then you know even better what to expect, but that I also like mainly.

"I also like [it] in the Champions League because the first time you play each other, mainly in the Champions League you don’t play each other that much. So, it’s a bit new but the second time you can prepare your team even better. Especially if the team you face does the same again.

"But now, being in the Premier League, we played them [Wolves] already once [and] you see a lot of games of them because they play against teams that we are facing as well. You know each other that well that I don’t see that much difference between playing each other twice in three days or that there’s a longer period in between."
