Ammon News - Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp admitted his team face a “super important week” as they look to push themselves back into Premier League top four contention.

The Merseysiders – seventh in the table, nine points adrift of Tottenham Hotspur in fourth place – face Wolves at Anfield on Wednesday then arch-rivals Manchester United at home on Sunday.

Klopp's side have two games in hand on Spurs and need to make the first one count against a Wolves team they are facing for a fourth time in 11 games. They played the Midlands club twice in the FA Cup, winning the replay 1-0 before losing 3-0 in the reverse league fixture earlier this month.

“Nothing I saw in training suggests we don't have a chance,” Klopp said of their now very familiar opponents. “We know a lot about each other and we know it won't be easy. There won't be the most surprising information and we have to make sure we are ready.

“It is a super important week, we cannot ignore that. We have two home games … I would love to give the season a little push in this week and we need results for that. And for results we need good performances.

“The main difference is we will play at Anfield and we have to make that count. It's a long period between games, we want to put it right. But I am more focused on giving the season a proper push, we need to find a steady mood.”
