First-half goals from Luis Diaz and Mohamed Salah, who scored his 23rd league goal of the season, gave the Reds a comfortable lead.
However, Matheus Cunha's second-half goal for the Wolves narrowed the gap and introduced some tension into the game.
Despite not registering a single shot in the second half, Liverpool's defence held firm, securing a crucial victory.
Slot's arrival at Liverpool has been nothing short of remarkable. Replacing Jurgen Klopp, he has quickly implemented his style, leading the team to the top of the Premier League table.
This victory over Wolves allowed Liverpool to re-establish their seven-point lead.
The only manager to have secured more points at this stage than the Dutchman in the Premier League is Jose Mourinho, with 64.
Slot's achievements place him among an elite group of managers who have made an immediate impact in the Premier League.
Meanwhile, Salah has been a standout performer, contributing significantly to Slot's success with both goals and assists.
His influence on the team cannot be overstated, as his goal contributions have been worth 17 points, unmatched by any other player in the league.
While Slot acknowledges the quality of rival teams like Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester City, there's a growing sense that Liverpool is a force to be reckoned with.
The team's ability to secure wins even when not at their best is a hallmark of potential champions.
