Stevie G is back at Enfield!
This will be an emotional day for many Liverpool fans, and especially for the head coach of Aston Villa, Red’s ex-captain, Steven Gerrard. After 504 appearances for Liverpool as a player, he is coming back today as manager for the visiting team from Birmingham. So today’s match will definitely be an interesting one to be watched and see how the Lions are going to perform at their head coach’s favorite stadium.
Since Liverpool FC is in a title chase, they approach every game with one goal, and that is to win the 3 points. They are the second-placed team in the Premier League right now, with 34 points on their account, only one point behind Man City (35). After losing the first game for the season to West Ham (3:2), the Reds won 4 games in a row. They started the series by beating Arsenal (4:0), then Southampton (4:0), Everton (4:1), and their last victim were Wolverhampton Wanderers (0:1). So today there is no question that Jurgen Klopp will bring another offensive approach and go for the 5th consecutive win.
Aston Villa FC on the other hand sits in 10th position with 19 points on their account. After the arrival of their new coach Steven Gerrard, the Lions won 3 games and lost 1. They managed to beat Brighton (2:0), Crystal Palace (2:1) and Leicester (2:1) and lost to Manchester City (1:2). So today’s match will be another big challenge where Aston Villa’s squad must bring quality approach and fighting spirit on the pitch in order to surprise the hosting crew from Liverpool.
We are expecting a very dynamic football game, with plenty of exciting moments on both sides of the field. The favorite for the win will be the hosting team, Liverpool FC.
