Liverpool Team News
In the previous round, Liverpool players beat Leicester away from home 0:3. In the 33rd and 36th minutes of the game, Mohamed Salah played past Curtis Jones on two occasions, and he checked the visitors’ goalkeeper both times. The final result was set by the home team in the 71st minute when the Egyptian recorded the third assist, but this time, the scorer was Trent Alexander-Arnold.
Two rounds before the end of the championship, Liverpool is in fifth position in the table with 65 points, just one less than the fourth-placed Manchester United and the place leading to the Champions League. In the previous seven league matches, they won all of them. In the last round, the Reds will face Southampton away.
At the end of the current season, Roberto Firmino, Naby Keita, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, and James Milner will leave the ranks of Liverpool, and they will be presented with recognition for the results achieved at this game.
As for the injured players, Thiago Alcantara, Stefan Bajcetic, Calvin Ramsay, and Naby Keita are out of the protocol for the next game, while Darwin Nunez and Roberto Firmino are questionable. All other players readily welcome the duel with Aston Villa.
It is expected that the same starting 11 will run on the field from the first minute as in the match with Leicester, but it remains to be seen what decision coach Jurgen Klopp will make.
Aston Villa Team News
In the last league game, Aston Villa players defeated Tottenham at home 2:1. They took the lead already in the eighth minute of the match when Jacob Ramsey shook the opponent’s net with an assist from Leon Bailey. They doubled their advantage in the 72nd minute with a goal by Douglas Luiz. The guests scored a consolation goal at the very end of the match from a penalty kick.
They currently occupy the eighth position in the table with 57 points, one less than sixth-placed Brighton. In the last five matches in the league, they recorded two wins and two losses, as well as one draw. Until the end of the season, in addition to the match with Liverpool, Aston Villa will also compete with Brighton at home.
The only player Unai Emery won’t be able to count on is backup goalkeeper Jed Steer. In addition to him, there is a chance that Philippe Coutinho will not be fully ready, and even if he is, he will probably start the match from the bench for reserve players.
There is a possibility that Boubacar Kamara will be in the starting lineup, which would mean that Leon Bailey will move to the bench and that John McGinn will play on the flank. But we have to see.
