Liverpool striker Diogo Jota: I always support Wolves

Liverpool striker Diogo Jota says he's always been a Wolves fan.

Jota goes back to his old club in today's early kickoff.

He told liverpoolfc.com: "A tough game obviously. There's a lot of changes since I left already, there's not many people left. But it's always special to go back there to Molineux. Every time we go over there [it's tough] – last year we lost, the year before we scored [in the] last minute. So I know and they know it's not going to be easy, but we are ready to fight for the three points.

"I'm always supporting them and hoping they win their matches. I had close friends [there] until this season at least, when [Ruben] Neves left. I had good and bad moments already [at Molineux] since I left: I scored there just the year after, we won with my goal.

"Two years ago I missed a clear opportunity, it was not great. But yeah, it's one more game now; I know it's special but I try to get it out of my mind because in the end it's just one more game of football."
