Liverpool vs. Wolves: Head-to-head record and past meetings after Reds reach FA Cup quarter-finals

Head-to-head record

Previous meetings: 122

Wolves wins: 38

Draws: 18

A fixture that dates back to the 19th century – beginning with an 1894 Division One encounter that Wolverhampton Wanderers won 3–1 – Liverpool and the Old Gold have now crossed paths 122 times in competitive football, with the Reds holding a clear advantage in the overall head-to-head.

Liverpool have claimed 66 victories across those meetings, while Wolves have recorded a respectable 38 wins of their own, with a further 18 contests ending all square.

In the modern era, the Merseyside giants have largely had the upper hand, having won six of their last seven clashes with Wolves and 14 of the last 17 across all competitions, including two 2–1 Premier League successes during the 2024–25 campaign.

However, in March 2026, the Old Gold ran out 2-1 winners at Molineux, and reversing December 2025's 2-1 loss at Anfield saw Rob Edwards's side earn back-to-back top-flight wins for the first time since April 2024.

Arne Slot's men would have their revenge, though, as they eliminated Wolves from the FA Cup's fifth round with a 3-1 triumph at Molineux just three days later, courtesy of goals from Andrew Robertson, Mohamed Salah and Curtis Jones.

Despite coming in the cup, that victory was a return to form for Liverpool, who have won 17 of the last 19 Premier League meetings between the sides, including a double during Jurgen Klopp’s final campaign in 2023–24.

That season, the Reds pulled off a turnaround to win 3-1 at Molineux, before the legendary German manager called time on his nine-year Liverpool reign with a 2-0 triumph at Anfield on the final weekend of the campaign.

Wolves were also eliminated from the FA Cup by Liverpool earlier in 2023-24, though it is worth mentioning that they have found cup joy against the Reds in the past, most notably knocking them out of the 2016-17 and 2018-19 editions of the competition, including a memorable 2-1 victory at Anfield in the former.

After his two strikes against Wolves in March 2026's games, Salah joined fellow Liverpool legend Roger Hunt as the highest scorer in this fixture, with an impressive nine goals.
