Wolves bounced back from a 3-0 loss to QPR with a 5-0 win over Millwall in their mid-week Carling Cup clash.
But now all focus has to be turned back towards the league as McCarthy’s men travel to Liverpool to face the Reds at Anfield.
Liverpool last Premier League tie was an unhappy affair away at Tottenham last Sunday and, after scraping a win against Brighton in the week, Kenny Dalglish’s side will be looking to answer some questions when they entertain the visiting Wolves.
McCarthy will have both captain Roger Johnson and Kevin Foley available after both missed the mid-week Carling Cup action, however Stephen Fletcher looks unlikely to be involved as his groin injury continues to recover.
“There’s no pressure on the players,” said McCarthy when asked about Saturday’s fixture.“We’re not expected to get anything, it’s a place where you can go and play.”
Wolves task is made even more difficult as both Martin Skyrtel and Charlie Adam had their one match bans used up in the weeks Carling Cup action, and Wolves players and fans alike are under no illusion that the trip to Anfield will be a walk in the park.
Kick Off at Anfield is 15:00pm, Saturday 24th September.
