Fulham welcome back fans to Craven Cottage and hope that will give them an edge for Liverpool’s visit. Scott Parker must decide whether to recall one of their favourites, Aleksandar Mitrovic, having benched him for the past three games. “His attitude and professionalism will get him back to that place where he needs to be,” the manager said. So might his ability to expose a depleted Liverpool defence that was barely tested against Wolves last weekend.

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) / EPL : Brighton Vs Liverpool Today At 1:30pm by luvola(m): 11:52am On Nov 28, 2020 |
Preview: Brighton & Hove Albion vs. Liverpool - prediction, team news, lineups By Barney Corkhill, Editor | 1d Liverpool have the chance to move out on their own at the top of the Premier League table when they take on Brighton & Hove Albion at the Amex Stadium on Saturday lunchtime. The champions currently sit level at the summit with Tottenham Hotspur, but an inferior goal difference leaves them in second place heading into their trip to a Brighton side coming off the back of a much-needed victory. Match preview Liverpool's Diogo Jota celebrates scoring against Leicester City in the Premier League on November 22, 2020© Reuters Liverpool's injury problems will continue to be a talking point throughout the remainder of the season given the long-term nature of some of their absentees, but they did an admirable job of answering questions regarding how they might cope last weekend. A dominant 3-0 win over previous table-toppers Leicester City left them level with Spurs, and another victory this weekend would pile the pressure on a Tottenham side that faces a difficult away trip to Chelsea on Sunday. However, Jurgen Klopp will be well aware that his side cannot afford a repeat display of Wednesday's 2-0 defeat at home to Atalanta BC - a result which denied the Reds the chance to secure a last-16 spot in the Champions League with two games to spare. The result itself was a major shock - it was the first time in 137 matches under Klopp that Liverpool have lost a competitive home match by more than one goal, and the first time they have been beaten inside 90 minutes at Anfield in any competition since September 2018. More worrying would have been the performance, though; Liverpool hit five past Atalanta three weeks earlier but failed to even have a shot on target in the reverse fixture. Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp pictured on November 22, 2020© Reuters Klopp had no complaints at the result but did once again take aim at the scheduling which sees his side thrust back into action for Saturday's early kickoff. Liverpool made a number of changes in midweek and, while their attack was uncharacteristically blunt during that match, they do boast the second-best goalscoring record in the Premier League this season and are now the only team to have found the back of the net in every game. At the other end, Liverpool kept their first clean sheet in seven league games last weekend and actually boast a much better defensive record since Virgil van Dijk was injured. It is now their away form which will be of greatest concern, with Klopp's men having only won three of their last 10 away league games and none of their last three - they have not gone four without a win since March 2017. Brighton's home record is nothing to brag about either, though, with the Seagulls without a win in their last eight league games at the Amex and having only won two of their last 17, a run which now stretches back more than a year. Brighton & Hove Albion's Danny Welbeck celebrates scoring their first goal with teammates against Aston Villa on November 21, 2020© Reuters Indeed, Brighton's last four Premier League wins have all now come away from home, including last weekend's 2-1 triumph over an Aston Villa side that hammered Liverpool 7-2 earlier this season. Victory over the Reds themselves would give them back-to-back league wins for the first time since November 2019 and could even lift them above Manchester City in the table for a few hours at least. To do that, though, Graham Potter's men will need to overcome a torrid record against Liverpool; they have lost each of their last nine meetings with the Merseysiders by an aggregate scoreline of 27-7, conceding twice in the opening eight minutes of the corresponding fixture last season. In fact, Brighton have never won a top-flight home game against Liverpool, with their only home victory over Liverpool in any division coming in a Second Division match in January 1961. The Seagulls have also picked up only two points from a possible 42 in previous games against reigning top-flight champions, although both of those points did come against Liverpool - in 1981 and 1983. Brighton & Hove Albion Premier League form: LDDLDW Liverpool Premier League form: LDWWDW Liverpool form (all competitions): WWWDWL Team News Liverpool midfielder Thiago Alcantara after the full-time whistle against Everton on October 17.© Reuters Liverpool remain without a host of key first-team players for this match, although they were boosted by the returns of Mohamed Salah and Rhys Williams against Atalanta. Salah is likely to start again this weekend, and his record against Brighton suggests that he could be a key figure, with five goals and three assists in six previous Premier League meetings. Diogo Jota's omission in midweek was more a reflection of his increased importance to the team than a suggestion that he is still regarded as back-up to the main front three, and Klopp could once again name a front four including Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane this weekend. While he may be spoiled for choice in attack, it is in defence and midfield where Klopp finds his options limited, with Fabinho set to return to the side to partner Joel Matip at centre-back. Van Dijk, Joe Gomez and Trent Alexander-Arnold all remain sidelined for this match, while midfield quartet Thiago Alcantara, Naby Keita, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Xherdan Shaqiri are all expected to miss out once again. Captain Jordan Henderson returned to full training on Thursday and so should be involved in some capacity, although he may be eased back into it rather than being named in the starting XI. Liverpool are by no means the only team with injury problems, though, and Brighton could also be missing as many as seven players - although many of those could yet feature. Tariq Lamptey is sidelined through suspension following his red card against Aston Villa, while Adam Lallana will be assessed ahead of kickoff, with a groin problem threatening to deny him a reunion with the club he left in the summer. Leandro Trossard is now back available, while Solly March, Davy Propper and Aaron Connolly are also expected to be passed fit for Saturday's match. Alexis Mac Allister will miss out due to coronavirus, while Florin Andone, Jose Izquierdo and Christian Walton are also likely to play no part. Danny Welbeck will be hoping for another start after opening his Brighton account against Villa last time out; he has not scored in consecutive Premier League games since January 2016. Brighton & Hove Albion possible starting lineup: Ryan; White, Dunk, Webster; Veltman, Bissouma, Gross, March; Trossard; Welbeck, Maupay Liverpool possible starting lineup: Alisson; N Williams, Matip, Fabinho, Robertson; Milner, Wijnaldum; Salah, Firmino, Mane; Jota SM words green background We say: Brighton & Hove Albion 1-2 Liverpool Despite their convincing win over Leicester last weekend, Liverpool have a few questions to answer here regarding their away form and whether the midweek defeat to Atalanta was just a blip or the first sign of their injury crisis taking its toll. Brighton have performed far better this season than their league position and points tally suggests, but a first league win or draw against Liverpool since the early 1980s may be just too much to expect from them this weekend. https://www.sportsmole.co.uk/football/liverpool/preview/preview-brighton-vs-liverpool-prediction-team-news-lineups_423874.html Dominique |

Sports / Rhys Williams Injury Further Deepens Liverpool Crisis In Back Line by luvola(m): 7:59am On Nov 19, 2020 |
Rhys Williams Injury Further Deepens Liverpool Crisis in Back Line November 18, 2020 By paulmbanks Leave a Comment FacebookTwitterLinkedInPinterestTumblrRedditFarkGoogle BookmarksMySpaceShare The international break from hell continues for Liverpool FC. Rhys Williams, who has made five appearances for Liverpool this season and played in all three Champions League group-stage matches, is the latest Reds player to suffer an injury. Given all the key absentees they already have in the back line, this news comes at the absolute worst time. Joe Gomez and Virgil van Dijk are out for most, if not all of the season. Fabinho is also missing while Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andy Robertson are doubts for Sunday’s crunch clash versus Leicester City. Williams could have made his first Premier League appearance, perhaps even in the first team, but that is now doubtful due to a hip injury that kept him out of the matchday squad. The good news is that it was just precautionary. “He had a very minor stiff hip,” said England U21 manager Aidy Boothroyd of the Rhys Williams issue. “It was in his best interests to get him back to Liverpool. With all the players, if there’s any potential injuries or niggles then our medical staff is in contact with the club. “Rhys wasn’t actually on the bench so I thought the best thing was to get him back to Liverpool.” In addition to the all injuries and doubts in the back line, Liverpool will also be without superstar winger Mohamed Salah, who has tested positive for the coronavirus. When the third place Reds take on the first place Foxes this weekend, they will be extremely short-handed, to say the least. https://www.thesportsbank.net/football/liverpool/rhys-williams-injury/ Dominique |

Robertson played 120 minutes on Thursday as Scotland beat Slovenia on penalties after a 1-1 draw to clinch their place in next summer's European Championships. The defender revealed afterwards he was suffering from a tight hamstring having skippered his country to their first major finals tournament in 22 years.

Gomez is injured again and this connote Matip is the only central back liverpool have at the moment. Title is gone Preview Liverpool’s injury crisis in defence deepened on Wednesday with the news Joe Gomez is set for a spell on the sidelines after suffering a knee injury in England training. The Premier League champions are expected to be without talismanic centre-back Virgil van Dijk for the rest of the season after the Dutchman suffered cruciate ligament damage last month. Right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold will miss the next month after picking up a calf injury in Sunday’s 1-1 draw at Manchester City, while Fabinho — who had deputised at centre-back since Van Dijk’s injury — is also recovering from a hamstring problem. “I can’t tell you how serious it is because he is yet to have scans. What was upsetting was he was in a fair bit of pain and nobody was around him when the injury happened,” said England boss Gareth Southgate. “I didn’t like that element of it. We are all hopeful for him that it is not what it might be.” Gomez will definitely miss England’s friendly against the Republic of Ireland on Thursday and Nations League matches against Belgium and Iceland https://thestreetjournal.org/2020/11/gomez-injury-deals-another-blow-to-liverpool-defence/ Dominique front page |

Sports / Liverpool Equal Longest Unbeaten Home record after Jota goal sink Westham by luvola(m): 10:00pm On Oct 31, 2020 |
Liverpool go top and equal home record as super sub Diogo Jota sinks West Ham Andy Hunter at Anfield @AHunterGuardian Sat 31 Oct 2020 19.37 GMTLast modified on Sat 31 Oct 2020 20.22 GMT Shares 5 Comments 408  Jürgen Klopp may be shouting loudest for the reintroduction of the five substitutes rule in the Premier League but he only needed two to complete a comeback victory over West Ham. Diogo Jota and Xherdan Shaqiri combined stylishly five minutes from time to take Liverpool to the Premier League summit and equal the club record of 63 league games unbeaten at Anfield. Advertisement Jota scored for the third successive game at Anfield after being released inside the visitors’ area by a sublime pass from fellow substitute Shaqiri. The forward’s winner arrived minutes after he had a goal disallowed by Kevin Friend after a VAR check, and ruined an otherwise hugely encouraging away performance for David Moyes’ team. Liverpool 2-1 West Ham United: Premier League – as it happened Read more Liverpool’s vulnerable spot was obvious with Virgil van Dijk, Fabinho and Joël Matip all missing from central defence and West Ham exploited it to take an early lead. They were indebted to a weak clearance from Joe Gomez, the more experienced centre-half in the home ranks, for edging ahead in the face of a lively start from the champions. Klopp gave Nat Phillips a Premier League debut alongside the England international with Fabinho out until the next international break with a hamstring injury. The 23-year-old spent last season on loan at Stuttgart and was omitted from Liverpool’s Champions League squad this term due to a planned transfer that fell through. The debutant made a convincing start in his aerial duels against Sébastien Haller, who led the West Ham line in the absence of the injured Michail Antonio, although his foul on the striker inadvertently revealed that Alisson had some concerns with his new-look defence. “Organise quickly, organise quickly,” the goalkeeper shouted as Jarrod Bowen lined up the free-kick. They did not, Haller almost got his head on the delivery, and Alisson did not hold back in telling his teammates exactly what he thought of their delayed response. He had more reason to complain following West Ham’s next attack. Advertisement Angelo Ogbonna instigated an incisive move with an intelligent pass out of central defence to Bowen, who had time and space to turn and release Aaron Cresswell on the left. Arthur Masuaku took over and crossed into the heart of the Liverpool penalty area, where Gomez headed what should have been a routine clearance straight to the unmarked Pablo Fornals. The Spanish midfielder punished the lapse with a low shot that beat Alisson via the foot of his right-hand post.  Alisson Becker lunges to his right in vain as Pablo Fornals opens the scoring. Photograph: Clive Brunskill/AFP/Getty Images With Declan Rice alert and assured in central midfield, and the visitors switching to 5-4-1 out of possession, Moyes’s side defended their lead comfortably for much of the first half. They had a few let-offs, not least when Salah sent Sadio Mané racing through on goal with a deft touch. Cresswell cut across the striker inside the area but Friend waved play on and, after West Ham were unable to scramble clear, Jordan Henderson side-footed inches wide. A mix-up between Ogbonna and Lukasz Fabianski also allowed Trent Alexander-Arnold’s cross to spill across their area but Fabián Balbuena was on hand to clear. Alexander-Arnold, still only 22, was making his 100th Premier League appearance for his boyhood club and swept another decent chance from a free-kick into the West Ham wall. Advertisement Liverpool were starting to toil against the well-drilled banks of West Ham’s midfield and defence when they were awarded a soft penalty shortly before the interval. Curtis Jones crossed to Salah on the right of the box and he was caught on the calf by Masuaku as he brought the ball under control. There was contact, and Salah made the most of it. Tellingly there were no protestations from the West Ham wing-back when Friend pointed to the spot and Salah drilled the spot-kick down the middle of Fabianski’s goal.  As Liverpool seek Anfield record how do they compare with Paisley greats? Read more The visitors looked dangerous whenever they kept possession long enough to venture into Liverpool territory. Masuaku presented Fornals with a chance for a second goal moments after the restart but the goalscorer, meeting the left wing cross at full stretch, diverted his shot tamely at Alisson. Fornals had another good opportunity to restore West Ham’s lead when latching on to Haller’s header. Liverpool’s defence was exposed and Bowen was completely unmarked to his left but the forward instead opted for a shot that smashed against Andy Robertson’s legs to safety. Bowen’s disgust was not disguised. The Fiver: sign up and get our daily football email. Robertson almost made his mark in the opposite penalty box moments later when released behind the visiting defence by a superb Henderson pass. Fabianski blocked the defender’s attempted pull-back and Salah was unable to capitalise on the loose ball. Then came controversy, and the latest VAR decision to go against Liverpool. Advertisement Fabianski produced a smart save to deny Mané from 12 yards after the Senegal international was set up by Jota. The ball squirmed back to Jota when the goalkeeper, Mané and Ogbonna all descended on the rebound and the Portugal international converted. VAR, however, reviewed a possible foul by Mané as he challenged for the loose ball with Ogbonna and Fabianski. Friend consulted his monitor and agreed. No goal. But Liverpool, thanks to their substitutes, would not be denied a 52nd victory in their record-equalling unbeaten home run. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2020/oct/31/liverpool-west-ham-premier-league-match-report Dominique front page please |

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) / Liverpool Vs FC Midtjylland: UCL (1 - 0) On 27th October 2020 by luvola(m): 10:02am On Oct 27, 2020 |
Liverpool will look to make it two wins from two in the Champions League when they host Danish champions FC Midtjylland on Tuesday at 8pm. The Reds made an impressive start to their group stage campaign with a 1-0 win away at Ajax last week. Nicolas Tagliafico’s own goal was enough to separate the two sides in what was a closely fought contest and also Liverpool’s first game without injured defender, Virgil van Dijk. Midtjylland, meanwhile, were thrashed 4-0 by Italian darlings Atalanta in their opening match, although they did recover to win 3-2 away at Superliga title rivals Brondby on Saturday. Jurgen Klopp’s men will be heavy favourites at Anfield but if the start of this season has shown us anything, it’s that nothing can be taken for granted right now.

BeGambleAware. Players to watch: Liverpool: Thought by many to be a squad depth signing, Diogo Jota‘s performances are making it really difficult for Klopp to drop him right now. The Portugal international netted his second in Liverpool colours during the Reds’ 2-1 win over Sheffield United at the weekend having already bagged two goals and an assist in his nation’s 3-0 win over Sweden earlier in October, too. Jota is averaging 4.2 shots and 1.8 successful dribbles per 90 minutes in the Premier League so far this season and will be one of Klopp’s biggest threats against their Danish visitors. FC Midtjylland: Defending Danish champions, Midtjylland have a big target on their heads wherever they go domestically right now, but currently sit joint-top of the Superliga after six games. The task of defending their title has been made that much easier so far by the form of Pione Sisto, who has bagged three goals in six league appearances since returning from Celta Vigo in the summer — no Midtjylland player has scored more. The 25-year-old Denmark international is quick and direct, and able to operate on either flank — Klopp will know that keeping Sisto quiet will go a long way to keeping Midtjylland at bay on Tuesday. Scoreline prediction: Liverpool 3-0 https://www.squawka.com/en/liverpool-v-fc-midtjylland-live-stream-watch-online-champions-league-predictions/ |

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) / Aston Villa Vs Liverpool (7 - 2) On 4th October 2020 by luvola(m): 5:34pm On Oct 04, 2020 |
Liverpool head to Aston Villa on Sunday evening in a meeting of two sides with a perfect start to the season. Something has to give at Villa Park, but both will be keen to continue their winning run in the Premier League, particularly after both lost in the EFL Cup in midweek. Villa have had an admittedly easier start, with the Reds having faced both Chelsea and Arsenal already, but Dean Smith’s side haven’t yet conceded in league play while Liverpool have had a few shaky moments at the back. Both teams are trying to keep pace with Everton, who have won four from four at the start of the season - and who Liverpool play next.

The match kicks off at 7:15pm on Sunday at Villa Park. Team news Villa are without long-term absentees Wesley and Bjorn Engels, while Tom Heaton is on the road to recovery but unlikely to feature. Ross Barkley is in line for a debut, though it might be off the bench. Liverpool are without Thiago and Mane due to positive coronavirus tests. Joel Matip and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain are out injured, but Jordan Henderson is back in training and could be in the squad. Kostas Tsimikas is also a doubt. Predicted line-ups Villa: Martinez; Cash, Konsa, Mings, Targett; McGinn, Luiz, Hourihane; Trezeguet, Watkins, Grealish Liverpool: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Van Dijk, Robertson; Keita, Fabinho, Wijnaldum; Salah, Firmino, Jota. Prediction Villa will make it tough for Liverpool and might revert to last season’s rather more defensive approach from the start, but the Reds should have enough to break them down even without their absent No. 10.

Liverpool travel to Newcastle United looking to end a phenomenal season after lifting the Premier League trophy on Wednesday. The Reds remain motivated based off their performance against Chelsea, and full of goals after hitting five at Anfield. Mohamed Salah, particularly, looks hungry for goals, though Jamie Vardy is four goals clear in the race for the golden boot, which will surely prove too much for the Egyptian. Steve Bruce’s side have been hit by injuries, but he’ll want a positive display to go out on after comfortably securing survival. Here are the predicted line-ups and team news for the game at St James’ Park.  Liverpool celebrate Naby Keita's impressive finish (Liverpool FC via Getty Images) When is it and what time is kick-off?

The match will be broadcast live on BT Sport 2 and BT Sport Extra 2, you can find a live stream for the game through the BT Sport app to watch on mobile devices. What is the team news? Emil Krafth is a doubt with a knock to his ankle, which means the Swede could join Fabian Schar (shoulder), Paul Dummett (ineligible), Jamaal Lascelles (knock), Ciaran Clark (ankle) and Florian Lejeune (thigh) on the sidelines. Isaac Hayden (hamstring) and Sean Longstaff (hamstring) could return. Joel Matip (foot) and Jordan Henderson (knee) remain out, while Dejan Lovren and Adam Lallana could be omitted with both primed for moves away. Takumi Minamino, Curtis Jones, Neco Williams and Harvey Elliott could all be in line for minutes in this free hit for the champions. redicted line-uPps Newcastle XI: Dubravka, Hayden, Fernandez, Rose, Manquillo, Bentaleb, Shelvey, Almiron, Ritchie, Saint-Maximin, Gayle Liverpool XI: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Van Dijk, Robertson, Keita, Fabinho, Wijnaldum, Salah, Minamino, Mane What are the odds? Newcastle: 13/2 Draw: 17/4 Liverpool: 4/11 Prediction The Reds may be nursing a few hangovers after the party following the trophy presentation, but they should have too much quality for an injury-hit Newcastle. Mohamed Salah is still hungry for goals and the Reds should ease to an emphatic victory to close off their historic campaign. 0-3. https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/premier-league/newcastle-vs-liverpool-predicted-lineups-team-news-injuries-premier-league-2020-today-latest-a9637566.html Dominique |
