- Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has no fresh injury concerns ahead of the welcome of West Brom, but he remains without no fewer than six players.
- Thiago is a doubt for the home side and will hope to get some minutes over the coming days.
- Klopp could make two changes to the side that started the 7-0 win at Crystal Palace, with Mohamed Salah and Curtis Jones coming in for Takumi Minamino and Naby Keita
- Jake Livermore replaces Matheus Pereira on the naughty step following his red card in the 3-0 defeat to Aston Villa.
- Conor Townsend remains out, while Sam Field, Hal Robson-Kanu and Kyle Bartley will all be assessed.
- Sam Allardyce could bring Branislav Ivanovic into the side to shore up the defence after the loss to Villa.
another fail for Klopps Army
You love to see it
No late winning goal ? I am surprised
Central defender Matip injured and joins Gomez and Virgil van Dijk on the sidelines.
Should Mane leave ? I mean they clearly are taken the p””””s out of him .Could be better in individual stats in another team
@alxdru taking the penalties out of him? or taking what?
@Crece282 i actually haven t seen a more unfair treatment from a top manager to his player
@Crece282 what ? Salah scores them. Mane got Pool more points than Salah with his goals and performances
@alxdru Philopolemical
@alxdru I'm just trying to understand why you think Mane should leave. What are they taking out of him? penalties? passes? plastics? plushies?
@Crece282 Philopolemical
£364,000 was matched at 1.05 odds for Liverpool to win in-running on betfair.
SAM ALLARDYCE MASTERCLASS!
I hate liverpool. How can EPL be so unpredictable. Very corrupt league.fixing games up and down later they will say Africa is corrupt.very corrupt league
@Tonipriceless How exactly was 1-1 unpredictable? That was pretty much what every expert worth his salt was predicting before kickoff.
A great saving by Allison previously AND then that lucky shot with the help from the post AND then hola came. Really bad luck to Liverpool. Also Allison was pretty self confident ,never thought about that ridículous goal.
@dib Liverpool were lucky to get away with a point. Karlan Grant should have put away that easy chance.
I expect West Brom firing Allardyce after this game like they did with Bilic after Man City game. They have great club management.
bruh
Big Sam pulls off yet another great escape with a point.
@Rensen good for him but i think times have changed and Scott Parker will win the fight this season
fun fact for this game: btts had the same odds like away side to score : ) so i guess someone is lucky that Liverpool scored
@alxdru Fun fact for the game: no one is truly shocked that Liverpool can't beat West Brom at Anfield.
@SeuneMilmas haha good one ! even after a shocking 7_0 victory
@alxdru Regression to the mean, mate. Much like how Villa could only score 1 goal against Leicester after putting 7 past Liverpool.
@SeuneMilmas never seen a team conceading goals so easy in PL . Palace, Man U and Liverpool case ....but yeah regression is the perfect word to describe this season
West Brom sitting in a low block taking out the Liverpool front three and midfield out to some extent, but with zero pressure on the back four, who are allowed to pick out players with ease. Damage limitation maybe but at what cost?
@Real_Madrid With players occupying most of the positions of maximum opportunity (POMO), West Brom couldn't have been set up better. Tactical masterclass from Big Sam once again.
@SeuneMilmas i upvoted your comment just because it s rare on Livepool games
@Real_Madrid They don't have good attackers to balance the risks
@Crece282 Well they showed some ambition finally and were rewarded, maybe if they'd shown that throughout the game could've been 3 points for them!
@Real_Madrid I disagree. You think they magically showed ambition in the second half? No, It was all part of the plan. There's no way they could have taken liverpool in the first half so they played defensively to tire them out. Whatever they did in the second half was made possible by what they did in the first half. This is the kind of tactic their manager is playing.
@Crece282 You sure know your football. Upvoted.
@Real_Madrid They would have scored fewer goals had they naively "showed ambition". It could have been worse than the 7-0 drubbing handed out to the very ambitious Crystal Palace.
@SeuneMilmas But how do you know for sure? no way it plays out like that everytime (their xG was 2.8). Liverpool barely created anything of note in this game, by showing ambition I only meant to leave atleast a lone striker to harry the backline and cause them to hurry their passes, it was Matip of all people who picked the ball out.
@Real_Madrid Reminder: Large Samuel is unbeaten at Anfield in his last 4 Premier League visits, each with a different team and averaging 22% possession. Yes, I'm sure it plays out like that more often than not.
0-0, 1-1
Roberto Firmino 2 score !!!!!!
Liverpool 3-0 West Brom
4-0
Premier League matches are far too weird and unpredictable. When a result appears obvious, the opposite usually happens. Man City should have beaten West Brom and they drew 1-1. Chelsea should have beaten Arsenal and they lost 3-1. There have been numerous other strange results. So even though this should be a comfortable 3-0 or 4-0 win, this will probably be a 1-1 draw or something stupid like that.
@uefalona Its hilarious how right this comment was. haha
@uefalona good one
@uefalona It's not strange if you understood that teams with inferior possession have always enjoyed a higher chance of winning. Lampard made the mistake of allowing Arsenal to reduce unnecessary possession to 39%.
@SeuneMilmas Funny how your deep 'understanding' of the game constantly leads you to make terrible predictions.
@Grumpkin69 As predicted, the 1.1 billion-valued squad of Liverpool proved that they were no better than the 2nd worst team in the league with a 1-1 draw at home. Klopp made the mistake of allowing West Brom to reduce unnecessary ball possession to 22%.
@SeuneMilmas Congrats bro you got 1 right, what's that now, 1 in 50? Even stopped clocks are right twice a day.
This game has all the makings of an upset.
@trill I would be shocked if West Brom do not draw 1-1
Liverpool 4-0 West Brom
Probably lazy 2-1 win with LFC scoring last goal scores in 85+. Bet AH WBA+1
lazy 2-1
6:0, 2 assists for Robertson
@youshouldbechoking Pathetic.
This match will have lots of goals and Liverpool will dismantle West brom
Win for liverpool
red card for Liverpool ....Mané or Henderson
@alxdru in your dream
4-1
4-0
Easy Liverpool win.
4-0
