Tipsters: Reds to leave Wolves howling

Cape Town - Mid-table Wolves are unlikely to dent English Premiership leaders Liverpool’s plans for a full house of points at Molineux on Friday night (22:00 SA time).

That’s the firm belief of the Sport24 tipsters, clear-headed enough at this stage of the festive season to unanimously back a ‘Pool triumph.

Compiled by Rob Houwing (Newcastle-partial), the other Premiership prediction gurus are Garrin Lambley (Everton, and defending champion), Lloyd Burnard, Tashreeq Vardien, Baden Gillion and Lynn Butler (all Man Utd) plus Craig Taylor (Liverpool).

Have a go yourself: three points are awarded to the forecasters for an entirely correct score-line, and one for right result.

Yes! Siya will only be 36 at the next World Cup. He can make it!

No! I think the smart thing to do is start again with a younger skipper ...

I'd keep Siya captain for now, but look to have someone else for 2027.
