# Liverpool fans react to Nicholas predicting a Reds defeat at Wolves

Liverpool visit Wolves on Thursday night, in what I believe will be one of the Reds’ toughest remaining Premier League fixtures this season.

Nuno Espirito Santo’s side will be [eyeing up a top-four finish after Chelsea’ recent dip](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/premier-league/table) and they can cause the top teams problems at Molineux, as their [dramatic recent win over Manchester City](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/50862383) showed.

Jurgen Klopp’s side have picked up 64 points from a possible 66 this season, however, which says everything you need to know about how special they are.

Another win on Thursday would feel hugely significant, ending a run of tricky fixtures in January.

Although Liverpool go into the game as overriding favourites, someone who thinks they will suffer a first league defeat since last January is Charlie Nicholas.

Writing on [https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11095/11913604/charlies-premier-league-predictions](https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11095/11913604/charlies-premier-league-predictions)*[Sky Sports](https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11095/11913604/charlies-premier-league-predictions)*, the former Arsenal and Scotland striker outlined why he thinks the Reds will come unstuck at Molineux:

> As cool as Virgil van Dijk and the back four have been, there was a vulnerability there. It was a massive game and they got the result.

> That being said, I see Liverpool’s first defeat of the season coming on Thursday, but it will not change the destiny of the Premier League title.

> Wolves relish the games against the top-six sides. Wolves looked assured at Anfield but got nothing from it.

> Klopp may make some changes and it could disrupt them a little bit.

These Liverpool supporters have been reacting to Nicholas’ comments on Twitter.

> Hasn’t Charlie Nicholas predicted us to Lose/Draw in 13 out of 22 games so far this season. Plank.
