West Bromwich Albion vs Liverpool Preview

West Bromwich Albion so far this season has performed way above any expectation. Currently West Bromwich Albion is sitting in 8th place in the Premier League standing, a bit of no-mans land. Th club is safe from relegation and too far behind to challenge for European football tickets. In their last 6 Premier League matches West Bromwich Albion only managed to collect 4 points, but the club has faced good teams during this stretch such as Arsenal, Manchester United, Southampton and Everton. An Arsenal victory and a Manchester United draw certainly show what this team is capable of. Although West Bromwich Albion is often referred to as an extremely defensive team, let’s hope they go out there today and give their home fans a great show.

West Bromwich Albion will be have a full squad to their disposal. No major injuries nor suspensions.

Liverpool faces another hugely important match in their quest for Champions League football. Currently sitting 4th in the table, Liverpool is in a hard battle with Manchester United, City and Arsenal to maintain this position. Liverpool’s recent form, 4 wins and 2 draws from their last 6 Premier League matches, must provide Jurgen Klopp’s men with a lot of confidence. Their healthy state of mind most recently showed when Liverpool turned around a 1-0 deficit into a 1-2 victory at Stoke City. Also against Bournemouth and Burnley Liverpool managed to come back from behind to get a result. If Liverpool wins this match, things will be looking bright. In their last matches of the season Liverpool will meet Watford, West Ham United, Crystal Palace and their toughest opponent will be Southampton.

A problem for Liverpool will be the injury of in-form Sadio Mane, the man who more then often takes Liverpool by the hand and who always scores important goals. Apart from Mane, Liverpool will be without Henderson, Ings and Lallana.

West Bromwich Albion vs Liverpool Prediction

Hopefully West Bromwich Albion will go out there today with the intention to entertain its home crowd. The club is safe from relegation and with Liverpool, Leicester City and Chelsea as their last three home opponenents it seems justified to try and get something from these matches with an attacking style of play. Hopefully this will also help Liverpool, who desperately need all the points they can get to hold off competition for a Champions League spot.

Liverpool, who already seem to have a hard time finding the net, will be without their main goal thread Sadio Mane. His absence will most likely open up a spot for Origi in the starting XI, who will play alongside Firmino in Liverpool’s attack. Also the absence of Lallana will be felt. The England international player is a corner stone of Klopp’s midfield with his consistent solid performances.

Obviously Liverpool is the main favorite to bring home the points, but if West Bromwich Albion is lining up 10 players right in front of their goalkeeper, don’t be surprised to see Klopp’s men struggle to find openings. No matter what it will be a tight match in which a Liverpool victory can be expected, be it with a small margin.
