Julen Lopetegui has confirmed his Wolves side have 'more problems' than the injury to Daniel Podence ahead of their FA Cup third round tie with Liverpool on Saturday night.
Liverpool will welcome Wolves to Anfield as they begin the defence of the FA Cup they won in May, but will be without the injured Virgil van Dijk after he suffered a hamstring in the loss at Brentford on Monday.
Wolves attacker Podence suffered an injury in the 1-1 draw with Aston Villa on Wednesday night and was forced off at half-time. Lopetegui is waiting on the results of several fitness tests.

The Spaniard could name Reds target Matheus Nunes in his starting XI in what could be an Anfield audition ahead of a possible summer transfer.
Giving his latest injury update, Lopetegui provided this update: "We are going to check today, not only Daniel Podence because we have more problems. We are going to wait until the last minute to have the line-up.
"In the last match we had a very short squad list and now we have more problems. This is the situation. We have to analyse well and make the best decision."
Wolves will also be without long-term injury absentees Chiquinho, Sasa Kalajdzic and Pedro Neto at Anfield.
