Liverpool and Leeds United face off on Saturday in an English Premier League showdown at Anfield. When these two teams faced off on February 23rd, it was Liverpool that secured the 6-0 victory.
Leeds United comes into this game sitting in 18th place in the group having picked up nine points. Leeds United has lost four games in a row, and the last game was a bad one. The defense gave up three games against Fulham and that led to the defeat. Leeds United had 58 percent of the possession and five shots on target. Stuart Dallas and Adam Forshaw are both dealing with long-term injuries and won’t be able to go in this game. Patrick Bamford and Rasmus Kristensen both could start in this game.
On the other side of this matchup is Liverpool, who sits in 8th place in the group having picked up 16 points. Last Saturday against Nottingham Forest, Liverpool really struggled, not scoring any goals and that led to the 1-0 defeat. Liverpool had 76 percent of the possession and seven shots on target, but they couldn’t score. Liverpool did play a midweek game against Ajax, and they won that game 3-0. Luis Diaz, Arthur, Joel Matip and Diogo Jota are all still out, and it doesn’t seem like they will be back anytime soon. Jordan Henderson left the last game with a knee injury, and it’s unclear his status for this game.
Liverpool is coming off a 3-0 victory in the last game against Ajax, and they are going to find the same type of success in this game. Leeds United’s defense is a big problem, and they are going to have issues in this game. Look for Liverpool to score two or three goals here, and Liverpool -1.5 to cash here.
