Liverpool could be without Joe Gomez against Wolves as surgery fears linger

Liverpool's Joe Gomez is treated for an injury before leaving the game during the Emirates FA Cup fourth round match at Home Park, Plymouth. Picture date: Sunday February 9, 2025. Liverpool will be without three players for Sunday's visit from Wolverhampton Wanderers at Anfield. On the back of Wednesday night's 2-2 draw with Everton in the final Merseyside derby at Goodison Park, the Reds welcome relegation-threatened Wolves without Joe Gomez, Tyler Morton or Curtis Jones. And with Arsenal in action a day earlier at struggling Leicester City, Arne Slot will know by the time Wolves visit whether or not his title-chasing side can extend the seven-point advantage they are currently in possession of at the top of the Premier League.

Lazio Hero Against Dynamo Kyiv Praises Team’s Bounce-Back Ability

Lazio enjoyed a dream start to their first UEFA Europa League campaign since 2022/23, strolling to a 3-0 win against Dynamo Kyiv in Hamburg. Boulaye Dia stole the show at the Volksparkstadion with a first-half brace to inspire the Biancocelesti to a much-needed victory. Dia joined Lazio on loan from Salernitana in mid-August. However, a lack of match fitness after a troubled 2023/24 saw him make his first Serie A start for Marco Baroni’s side on matchday three.

The 27-year-old forward got on the scoresheet again against Hellas Verona in the following round before drawing a blank against Fiorentina last weekend. Lazio lost that game 2-1 despite leading at halftime, and Dia believes Wednesday’s triumph was a perfect...
