Wolves will be without at least four players when they face Liverpool in the FA Cup, while some doubt remains over Diego Costa's involvement.
The Reds play Wolves in their third round replay at Molineux on Tuesday night. The original tie finished in a 2-2 draw at Anfield earlier this month.
Jurgen Klopp’s side go into the game on the back of a disappointing defeat to Brighton in the Premier League. Wolves, on the other hand, claimed a 1-0 win over West Ham.

Both clubs are suffering from a sizable injury list. Liverpool have as many as five players on the sidelines, with Arthur Melo, Virgil van Dijk, Luis Diaz, Diogo Jota and Roberto Firmino all injured, while there are still question marks over Darwin Nunez’s fitness ahead of the tie.
For Wolves, they will be without at least four key players for the clash against the Reds. And there are doubts over another one of their star names.
Boubacar Traore (groin), Pedro Neto (ankle), Chiquinho (knee) and Sasa Kalajdzic (knee) are all ruled out. Some could be back within a couple of weeks, while others are long-term absentees.
Another player who could be a doubt is Costa. The striker has been sidelined for Wolves’ last three matches, and has not played since the draw with Aston Villa on January 4.
Wolves boss Julen Lopetegui says he hopes to have Costa available to face Liverpool. The Spain international did not play a part in the original tie at Anfield earlier this month.
"Diego Costa suffered an injury against Aston Villa,” Lopetegui told Birmingham Live.
“He is better and I think he is going to be ready - I hope - for the next match. We will see."
