Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Liverpool Preview

Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Liverpool

Competition – FA Cup

Stadium: Molineux Stadium

Date: 6th March 2026

Kick-off time – 20:00 GMT

Wolverhampton Wanderers host Liverpool at Molineux Stadium in the FA Cup on Friday evening, with kick-off at 20:00 GMT. This is a rematch of the Premier League fixture played just three days ago at this exact ground, which Wolves won 2-1 — and they will draw enormous confidence from that result heading into what is another massive occasion at Molineux. In league and cup form combined, Wolves have won three of their last five, drawn one and lost one. Their most recent result was that 2-1 home win over Liverpool in the league on 3rd March. Prior to that, they won 2-0 at home to Aston Villa on 27th February. Earlier in this sequence, they lost 1-0 away at Crystal Palace on 22nd February, drew 2-2 at home to Arsenal on 18th February, and won 1-0 away at Grimsby Town in the previous round of this same FA Cup on 15th February. Wolves have shown real quality at home in this run — three home wins in four Molineux outings — and they will be desperate to reach the latter stages of the cup.

Liverpool arrive at Molineux having suffered their most recent defeat here just seventy-two hours ago, losing 1-2 away to Wolves in the league on 3rd March. Prior to that, they won 5-2 at home to West Ham United on 28th February and won 1-0 away at Nottingham Forest on 22nd February. Earlier in the sequence, they won 3-0 at home to Brighton & Hove Albion in the previous round of this same FA Cup on 14th February and also won 1-0 away at Sunderland in the league on 11th February. One loss in five is a strong overall record, and Liverpool will know that cup football and league football are different beasts — but the memory of conceding twice at Molineux in midweek will not sit well in their dressing room. They have the individual quality to respond and will be determined to show it in a competition they clearly want to win. The Reds are the stronger side on paper across most metrics and will be backed to make it through, but Wolves at home are no formality.

The head-to-head record firmly favours Liverpool, who have won four of the last five meetings to Wolves’ one, with no draws. The one Wolves win in that sequence is the most recent — that 2-1 home result on 3rd March 2026. Liverpool’s best recent result was a 2-0 home win on 19th May 2024. They also won 2-1 at home on 27th December 2025 and 2-1 at home on 16th February 2025. Liverpool have dominated this fixture over time but will need to produce something significantly better than their midweek showing if they are to book a berth in the next round.
