Had the VAR cameras at Anfield covered every inch of its pitch, it is unlikely Liverpool would have got as far as earning an FA Cup replay from their first meeting with Wolves.
But Toti’s controversially disallowed winner meant the sides were forced to be content with a share of the spoils from a thrilling 2-2 draw last time out.
And now they must meet again at Molineux as they look to secure a place in the fourth round of world football’s oldest domestic cup competition.
Relegation-threatened in the Premier League, the hosts will believe they have every chance of knocking out the holders after dominating them on their own patch last time out.

Wolves vs Liverpool live updates, highlights
1.5 hrs from kickoff: Hello and welcome to The Sporting News’ live coverage of Wolves vs Liverpool in the third round of the FA Cup. Julen Lopetegui’s team were denied a win at Anfield in the sides’ first meeting due to a VAR controversy, but they will be confident they can get through to the fourth round tonight against the out-of-form holders.
Wolves vs Liverpool lineups
Jurgen Klopp suggested he may have to mix things up in terms of selection for this one as he looks to protect his big-hitters in the hope their Premier League form might turn.
If Darwin Nunez is fit after a recent hamstring issue, he may well get a start as he bids to get a run of form together.
Liverpool predicted lineup (4-3-3): Alisson (GK) — Milner, Gomez, Matip, Tsimikas — Jones, Keita, Elliott — Doak, Nunez, Gakpo
Lopetegui rang the changes first time around and could go with a similarly rotated lineup, with his focus on avoiding relegation rather than a cup run.
Wolves predicted lineup (4-4-2): Sarkic (GK) — Lembikisa, Collins, Toti, Jonny — Traore, Hodge, Neves, Ait-Nouri — Guedes, Jimenez
