Liverpool has a long list of injuries as Virgil Van Dijk, Joe Gomez, Joel Matip, Caoimhin Kelleher, Jordan Henderson and Divock Origi are all out with injuries.

Tipster’s Angel

When these two sides met in the reverse fixture earlier this season, the result was 7-2 in favor of Aston Villa. This is also expected to be a thriller of a contest with a slight edge for Aston Villa as Liverpool are having a poor run of form at home.

Tip: Aston Villa +1 @ 2.04

It’s even Stevens in the last four head to head matches, as Liverpool has won two and Aston Villa has won two matches. Aston Villa are having a better edge over Liverpool whenever they have played at Anfield as Aston Villa has won two, drew one and lost just two matches. In the last ten matches, Liverpool has won five and lost five matches. Also, they have won just four of their last ten matches by more than a goal. Liverpool have lost all their last five home matches that they have played in the English Premier League. Aston Villa just lost four matches out of their last ten matches that they have played in all competitions. Also, they just lost two matches by more than one goal. In the last five away matches that Aston Villa has played, they have lost just one match, drew two and won two matches. So, it is very likely that Aston Villa will not lose the match by more than a goal at 2.04 odds available at the Dafabet sportsbook.

Tip: Total Goals Under 3 @ 1.88

These two teams have seen some high scoring fixtures over the years, but the current form of both teams suggests otherwise. In the last nine matches that Liverpool has played across all competitions, under three goals were scored in seven matches, over three in one and the other match had three goals scored in it. Even three goals were scored in four of the last five home matches that Liverpool has played in the Premier League. Just two of the last ten matches that Aston Villa has played in all competitions had over three goals scored in them. Even, under three goals were scored in all the last five away matches that Aston Villa has played in the Premier League.

Conclusion

With the title race already dead in the English Premier League, the race is still on for the top-four finish. Liverpool has a stronger motive to make it to the top four after their first-leg loss to Real Madrid. After this loss, their survival in the Champions League is very difficult. So, they might go all-in in the Premier League.
