"I know what a special tradition football is at this time of year in England so it is a privilege to play a game in front of our own supporters, especially as it allows us to be together for one last time in 2025."Slot on Liverpool's progression and upcoming goals"It goes without saying that we would like to end the year on a high.

In recent weeks we have made progress, but it is also clear to us more than anyone that there are still areas for improvement."Our victory at Tottenham last weekend underlined this situation because although I was more than happy that we took three points, there were also parts of our game that were less than satisfying.Slot is hopeful that Liverpool can build on their recent unbeaten run"This is not something I say to diminish optimism. It is important to be realistic so that we know how and where we need to get better as well as recognizing the elements that are working well."The fact that we are now unbeaten in our last six matches after a very difficult spell tells us that we are on the right road so now we need to take the next steps.On missing Alexander Isak and his Christmas wish"The fact that we will not have Alexander Isak with us for a period is, of course, a major disappointment.

This has been one of the stories of our season so far and we have no option but to cope and this means finding solutions and, most importantly, sticking together on and off the pitch.Slot on the Liverpool roster and Diogo Jota emotions"That ability to be united has been one of our most important qualities throughout a year which has brought us some of our highest highs and our lowest lows. Like us, Wolves were clearly very affected by the loss of such a special player and person so my thoughts continue to be with them also.Liverpool and Wolves will pay tribute to Diogo Jota on December 27(Image: Getty Images)"I would like to welcome Rob Edwards, his players and staff as well as the supporters and directors of Wolves to Anfield for the game."They arrive fighting for their future but regardless of their current position in the Premier League table we will expect the kind of test that we faced against them twice last season when we managed to come out on top in two very difficult games."This is just the way the Premier League is, which makes it so, so important to be on the right side of the small margins.
