Liverpool have an excellent record against Villa. Both clubs have improved; Villa are in form and Liverpool's performance has become more fluid and entertaining, making Rodgers's system more visible. This will be interesting because Villa's strengths are Liverpool's weaknesses vice versa. Both clubs will create chances and the one who takes them will wing. If Liverpool managed to control Beneteke, and Villa's wings, there's a good chance they'll win. If Villa managed to control forwards, and especially Coutinho, and created efficient counter-attacks focusing on the wings, there's a good chance they'll win.
This will be a very good game, but I can't see many goals. Benteke is the obvious threat for Villa, and is very strong in the air. Mignolet was a bit suspect in the first half vs Stoke, when challenged in the air by Crouch. He (Mignolet) admitted he was nervous in the first half, which was understandable as he was making his home debut in a competitive match. Hopefully he'll be confident after the second half of yesterday's game. Liverpool create a lot of chances, but also waste alot of them. Could be very interesting. Liverpool didn't have the best away form last season, but will be hoping to go in to the United game with maximum points.
it takes only one player to neutralize coutinho. man marking everywhere on the pitch and that kid will get crazy
Aston Villa 2 - 2 Liverpool
