Christian benteke is in form as he single handedly scored 8 goals in 6 matches so we should be wary of him.... Mod this is a Wembley match so should make front page...
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › FA Cup Semi Final : Aston Villa Vs Liverpool Today At 4pm by luvola(op):
Aston Villa boss Tim Sherwood has said it is
"touch and go" whether Gabriel Agbonlahor
will overcome a hamstring strain in time to
face Liverpool.
Ciaran Clark and the suspended Carlos
Sanchez are definitely out but Scott Sinclair
and Ashley Westwood are fit.
Liverpool's Jordon Ibe is cup-tied, while
Daniel Sturridge is a major doubt with a hip
problem.
Mamadou Sakho is out with a hamstring
injury but Martin Skrtel and Steve Gerrard are
available after suspension.
"He always produces big goals and big
moments. He knows Wembley very well. He's
got special quality".
Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has set
the stage for Steven Gerrard to play a
limelight role in what could be a fascinating
FA Cup semi-final.
Back from his three-match ban, the Reds'
captain will have his heart set on winning a
third FA Cup in his final game for the club on
his 35th birthday next month. It would be the
last chapter of his epic FA Cup history.
He became a Liverpool legend with his
performance against Patrick Vieira in the 2001
cup final against Arsenal, and his stoppage
time rasper in 2006 saved them against West
Ham.
The script seems to have already been written.
But there's a major problem in the
assumption that Liverpool will win this as
easily as some bookies suggest with odds of
8/13 and Villa 5/1 outsiders.
Can the Red's defence hold Christian Benteke
in his current form. He's scored eight goals in
his last six games on his personal quest to
make up for lost time after injury wrecked last
summer's World Cup dream and shabby form
ruined the early part of his comeback.
Tim Sherwood, a beaten semi finalist twice in
his playing days at Tottenham, has his Villa
side now perfectly set up to play to Benteke's
strengths. They are getting the ball up to him
early and they're creating far more chances
from a more direct style.
The real pressure is on Liverpool in this one.
No Liverpool manager has failed to lift
silverware in his first three years in charge
since Phil Taylor in the 1950's. Rodgers
knows the significance this competition could
have on his career. Jurgen Klopp's sudden
availability will cast a shadow over a few
current managers.
The head says Liverpool. The heart, ruled by
the Gerrard story, says Liverpool. But
somewhere deep deep down in my gut (and
that's not a pleasant thought!) I have a
feeling Benteke will win it.
Head-to-head
Liverpool and Villa have met in a FA
Cup semi-final on three previous
occasions, with the Villans winning in
1897 and Liverpool progressing in 1914
and 1996. Villa went on to win the
trophy, while Liverpool were beaten in
the final on both occasions.
They have met seven times in total in
the FA Cup. Villa won that first meeting
in 1897, but have lost the subsequent
six matches.
In their last meeting in 1996, Liverpool
won the semi-final 3-0 at Old Trafford
thanks to a brace from Robbie Fowler
and a Jason McAteer goal.
Aston Villa
Villa's most recent FA Cup triumph
back in 1957 was then a competition-
record seventh victory.
Their only appearance in an FA Cup
final since 1957 was in 2000 when they
lost 1-0 to Chelsea.
The Villans have made the FA Cup
semi-final on 20 previous occasions,
winning 10 and losing 10. However,
they have lost seven of the last nine
times they have reached this stage.
The clean sheet they kept in the last
round against West Brom was only their
second in their last 20 FA Cup matches.
Villa's previous four FA Cup ties this
season have been at home.
Five of the nine goals in their three FA
Cup ties this year have been netted in
the 85th minute or later.
Since Tim Sherwood took over, Christian
Benteke is the top scorer in the Premier
League with eight goals.
Liverpool
This is Liverpool's 24th appearance in
an FA Cup semi-final - only Arsenal,
Manchester United and Everton have
played in more.
They have lost just one of their last nine
semi-finals.
The seven-time winners' last
appearance in an FA Cup final was in
2012 when they lost to Chelsea 2-1,
and they last won it in 2006.
Jordan Henderson and Simon Mignolet
have played 47 games in all
competitions this season, which is the
joint most across Europe's top five
leagues with Jose Callejon of Napoli,
Mikel Rico of Athletic Bilbao and
Stephane Ruffier of Saint-Etienne.
Liverpool have five players in their
squad to have won the FA Cup before:
Glen Johnson (Portsmouth 2008), Mario
Balotelli (Manchester City 2011), Steven
Gerrard (Liverpool 2001 & 2006), Daniel
Sturridge (2010 & 2012), and Kolo
Toure (Arsenal 2003 & 2005;
Manchester City 2011).
Steven Gerrard has scored more league
goals (12) against Aston Villa than any
other side in his career.

The game is almost like a 50-50 game and both teams will go for it especially for 4th place, although liverpool look more inform and united have not been convincing in their away matches this season. Both might settle for a draw.








Verdict; An away victory for United will be very difficult!

Go Liverpool and sink this Swansea
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Live : Swansea Vs Liverpool ( 0 - 0 ) by luvola(op):
Swansea striker Bafetimbi Gomis has been
cleared to play by specialists following his
collapse at Tottenham in his side's last league
game.
Kyle Bartley has a knee injury and is the only
confirmed absentee.
Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard is fit after
seven games out with a hamstring injury,
while Martin Skrtel and Mamadou Sakho are
also available.
Joe Allen is a doubt against his former club
because of a hip injury. Luis Enrique and
Lucas are both still out.
When Liverpool lost 3-0 to Manchester United
in mid-December, only the most optimistic of
the Anfield faithful would have predicted that
they would be challenging United for a
Champions League spot with 10 games of the
season still to play.
Since that defeat at Old Trafford, Brendan
Rodgers' side have won nine and drawn three
of their Premier League matches to give them
a chance of rubbing shoulders with Europe's
elite again, where they will attempt to make
amends for their poor showing in this
season's competition.
Rodgers has said he's "powerless" to help
keep Raheem Sterling and Jordan Henderson
at the club, as they negotiate new contracts.
He'll be keen to have them signed up for the
long term as quickly as possible, but also to
remove any distractions from what are an
important two months ahead.
In fact, the next two weeks are likely to be
pivotal to their season. After this fixture they
host Manchester United and then travel to
Arsenal in the Premier League, before meeting
Blackburn in their FA Cup quarter-final replay
at Ewood Park.
Liverpool haven't lost a league game to
Swansea since Brendan Rodgers was in the
opposition dug-out back in 2012. Victory for
the Swans this time around could see Garry
Monk's impressive side move above Stoke and
up to eighth.
His biggest concern this week has been the
fitness of Bafetimbi Gomis after the striker
lost consciousness during the first half of their
3-2 defeat at Tottenham. The 29-year-old
Frenchman has had big boots to fill since the
departure of Wilfried Bony to Manchester City.
Monk says he will be fit to start.
The Swans have scored in all but two of their
last 20 matches, although Liverpool haven't
conceded an away goal in the league since
that defeat to United back in December -
which proved to be such an unlikely turning
point in their season.
Head-to-head
Swansea have beaten Liverpool only
once in seven matches (D3, L3) since
winning promotion to the Premier
League in 2011.
Brendan Rodgers was the Swansea
manager for that sole Premier League
win, a 1-0 triumph at the Liberty
Stadium in May 2012.
Liverpool have won just two of 13
league matches away to Swansea (D4,
L7).
The last four Premier League fixtures
between the sides have produced 21
goals.
Swansea
They have only lost three home matches
this season, and 25 of their 40 points
have come at the Liberty Stadium.
Swansea have claimed only 13 of their
40 points against sides in the top half
of the table (W4, D1).
The Swans have conceded five second-
half goals at the Liberty Stadium; only
Chelsea have let in fewer at home only
with three.
Eight of their 11 Premier League wins
have been by the odd goal.
Jonjo Shelvey has scored in the last
three league matches between the clubs
as a Swansea player, albeit the last of
which was an own goal.
Liverpool
Liverpool are unbeaten in their last 12
league games (W9, D3). They are the
only unbeaten team left in the Premier
League in 2015.
They have earned 31 points from their
last 14 matches, having only managed
20 points in their opening 14 league
games.
The Reds have not conceded an away
goal in their last five league fixtures.
They have only twice gone six top-flight
away games without conceding:
January-April 1972 and November
1965-January 1966.
The last away goal they let in was Robin
van Persie's 71st-minute strike in the
3-0 defeat at Manchester United in mid-
December - 469 league minutes ago.
Daniel Sturridge has scored four goals
in three Premier League appearances for
Liverpool against Swansea, whilst Adam
Lallana has three goals in three league
games against them.
Brendan Rodgers won 36 of his 84
league matches as manager of Swansea,
guiding them to promotion to the
Premier League in 2010-11.
