Clean sheets have been hard to come by for Wolves this term with their shutout against West Ham on Saturday only their second in the last 13 league games.

Nevertheless, their defensive record is better than their league position of 16th would suggest and their total of 27 league goals conceded is better than that of Fulham, Brentford and Tottenham all sides battling for European football.

Liverpool meanwhile have been considerably more prolific at Anfield where 23 of their 34 league goals have been scored this season and while this is an FA Cup game, the league statistics are a good indicator that this match could be tighter than initially expected.
