Liverpool vs Aston Villa Preview and Team News

Liverpool Team News

Liverpool will be without several key players who have been sidelined with injuries. Alexander Isak, Alisson Becker, Giovanni Leoni, Curtis Jones, Jeremie Frimpong, Ryan Gravenberch, and Stefan Bacjetic are all unavailable. 

Manager Arne Slot prefers an attacking brand of soccer, with his midfielders driving a vertical press. Earlier, he was keen on playing crosses from the flanks too, but nowadays, these come out only if overlaps aren’t working in the final third. 

The Reds have been in incredibly poor form, which is something their fans aren’t used to seeing at all. Slot’s men have lost four of their last five matches, the latest of which was a 0-3 disappointment at the hands of Crystal Palace in the EFL Cup midweek. 

Although Liverpool, playing at home, held 59% of the possession, they took only eight shots on goal. What’s even worse is that just one of these strikes was on target. The Reds also won just 47% of their ground duels. Still, there were some positives, including their high passing rate of 84%.

Liverpool predicted lineup vs Aston Villa (4-2-3-1): Mamardashvili; Kerkez, van Dijk, Konate, Bradley; Mac Allister, Szobszolai; Gakpo, Wirtz, Salah; Ekitike.

Aston Villa Team News

Only Youri Tielemans and Emiliano Buendia are unavailable for Aston Villa due to calf and foot injuries, respectively. Harvey Elliott, meanwhile, has been suspended. Manager Unai Emery will be pleased to have most of his players available for selection. 

The Spaniard is known for emphasizing defensive organization before aiming for control in the final third. The same tactical approach is expected to be used against Liverpool, with the wingers closing in to offer assistance through lobbed balls and inversion of play. 

Donyell Malen, who has the most shots on target per match for Aston Villa (0.9), will be tasked with the responsibility of taking on the opposition’s defenders in one-on-one situations, likely as an impact substitute. 

Morgan Rogers has created the most big chances for the club (3) and will be a big threat inside the box. If Liverpool fail to mark Rogers, he can jump in from wide areas and set his teammates up with pinpoint passes. 

Villa currently sit eighth in the table, just one spot below their opponents. A win here would see them leapfrog the Reds in the standings. They showed their class with their recent 1-0 victory over Manchester City.

Aston Villa predicted lineup vs Liverpool (4-2-3-1): Martinez; Digne, Torres, Konsa, Cash; Onana, Kamara; Sancho, Rogers, McGinn; Watkins.

Liverpool vs Aston Villa Prediction

  • Pick: Liverpool to win
  • Odds: -189 (20Bet)
  • Correct score prediction: Liverpool 2-1 Aston Villa

We expect Liverpool to win. They have a much better attacking unit at their disposal and should be able to dissect the Villa defense comfortably. The Claret and Blue rely on a high defensive line, but the Reds like to play a lot of through balls from midfield. This allows them to pick up their attackers, who also get into good positions in the final third. 

The fact that Liverpool keep pressing high and don’t give up even when they don’t have the ball makes them a threatening side. The defending Premier League champions tend to play short passes, but also use skill-based options whenever they find themselves in one-on-one situations.

Liverpool vs Aston Villa Prediction, Betting Tip

  • Pick: Both teams to score
  • Odds: -154 (20Bet)

We expect both teams to score (BTTS). Liverpool have an upper hand over their opponents and should find the net early on in the game, but Villa can still capitalize on the hosts’ defensive lapses.

Sometimes, the Reds leave spaces in wide areas when they drive forward with the ball. And when they lose possession, their defenders often fail to get back in time to reduce the angles through which shots can be taken. The Villans can keep this in mind when attacking, since any fumble from the Liverpool midfielders or defenders can allow them to hit them on the break. 

Villa need to stay alert at all times and keep pressing high even when they don’t have the ball. From set pieces, it’s a different story altogether, and both sides can get on the scoresheet from there.
