Liverpool are set to welcome Wolves to Anfield for an important Premier League matchup on Sunday afternoon.
The Reds will host the Old Gold in a crucial fixture and one that is certain to have implications at both ends of the table.
Vitor Pereira is a fan of Arne Slot, and, despite initial reports, will have the chance to stand next to him on the Anfield touchline later this weekend.

Arne Slot charged by FA following Everton clash
Liverpool’s fiery mid-week Merseyside Derby — the last-ever at Goodison Park — will be remembered for a long time. The tie had it all, including a superb last gasp equaliser from James Tarkowski.
It was what unfolded after Michael Oliver blew the full-time whistle that has dominated the headlines, though. Slot’s frustrations, which he took out on the referee, have landed him in hot water.
Despite initial reports claiming Slot had received a two-match ban, which would’ve ruled him out of the technical area for Liverpool’s games against Wolves and Aston Villa, the Dutchman will be present due to having a period to appeal the charges.

Assistant manager Sipke Hulshoff also charged
Sipke Hulshoof, Slot’s first team assistant manager, has also been charged, as have both clubs, Liverpool and Everton.
Like Slot, Hulshoff has until next Wednesday (Feb 19) to respond to the charges. This appeal time means the pair will be allowed in the dugout for Liverpool’s home match against Wolves on Sunday and their away trip to Villa Park on that Wednesday.
Based on the outcome of any appeals the pair may make, as well as the independent panel’s decision, Liverpool’s manager and assistant could instead be banned for the Reds’ upcoming league match against Manchester City (Feb 23).
