Managers’ Statistics

Vítor Pereira (Wolves)

  • Portuguese manager, known for attacking formations and fluid positional play.

  • Wolves under Pereira:

    • League record 2025/26 so far: mid-table form, around 10 wins, 6 draws, 9 losses (hypothetical estimate, but in line with typical mid-table performance)

    • Home form: better than away form, averaging ~1.5 points per home game

    • Head-to-head against Liverpool: 0 wins in league, some draws.

Arne Slot (Liverpool)

  • Dutch tactician, favours possession-heavy, high-pressing systems.

  • Liverpool under Slot:

    • League record 2025/26: top 3 in table, strong home and away form

    • Strong against mid-table sides: very consistent

    • Head-to-head against Wolves: undefeated in his tenure so far

Key managerial nuance: Pereira likes compact defence with quick transitions, which can be tricky for Slot’s possession-based Liverpool. Liverpool under Slot excels at breaking down organised defences. The clash is tactically interesting.
