Team News

Liverpool
Sheff Utd
  • The likes of Trent Alexander-Arnold and Diogo Jota are nearing returns from injury.
  • Jurgen Klopp has confirmed that both Curtis Jones and Andy Robertson have returned to full fitness.
  • Sheffield United look set to be without as many as eight players here.

Prediction

  • Liverpool's victory, couple with a draw between Manchester City and Arsenal, saw them go top of the Premier League on Easter Sunday.
  • The Reds have the chance to consolidate their lead at the top here, ahead of the weekend's trip to Manchester United.
  • Sheffield United made it two league matches unbeaten for only the second time this season when they drew with Fulham on Saturday.
  • Like the meeting with Bournemouth three weeks prior, though, the Blades failed to secure victory after taking a two-goal lead.
  • Liverpool should make light work of this one.

  • the free kick in the 3rd minute went to Liverpool

  • Made tough work of it, but Mac Allister once again has proven so ridiculously clutch. Sensational form at the minute and seems not to have a single weakness in his game when he’s playing like this.

  • LIVERPOOL Kelleher, Gomez, Van Dijk, Konate, Bradley, Szoboszlai, Gravenberch, Mac Allister, Diaz, Nunez, Salah.

  • SUBS Adrian, Robertson, Tsimikas, Elliott, Clark, Jones, Quansah, Gakpo, Danns.

  • Sheffield to win atleast 1 half

  • Be interesting to see what team Liverpool will play due to Sundays game at Man Utd.

  • GoonerRSA made the point for the Arsenal vs Luton game on Wednesday that they need to win by 5 or similar to put a marker down and scare opponents. I believe the same applies here for Liverpool against Sheffield United. I also tend to believe that we'll deliver on that front, although it will likely be a slightly rotated side. Look for Gakpo to get an opportunity here and maybe starts for Elliott, Gravenberch, and maybe Tsimikas. If the scoring starts early for Liverpool, it will be a huge win. 6-1
