The Bookmaker Ratings vs WhoScored Predictions Battle: Round 11
Pavel’s tip (in full here):
Liverpool have shown, time and time again, that they can make anything happen at Anfield, against any team, in any tournament. They are unbeaten at home since January 17, and a few under par results from Klopp’s team in the BPL have been born purely out of the fact that they’ve made the Europa League their priority. However, there should be no doubting the motivation against Chelsea at home, because it’s a special rivalry. Chelsea have nothing to play for and it seems that the team is desperately waiting for next season with another manager. And to top it all, John Terry will miss the game due to suspension.
Just two of the last six Liverpool home matches ended with less than three goals in total (1:1, 4:1, 4:3, 2:2, 3:0 and 2:0). With this in mind, and in order to keep good momentum ahead of their final, I think we can expect at least two goals from the Reds.
Martin’s tip:
With so much attacking talent set to be on display for the home side, provided Klopp fields a strong team as expected, there should certainly be goals for the fans to cheer at Anfield on Wednesday. Having been rested at the weekend, Daniel Sturridge should start and has more motivation in this game than most having felt he wasn’t given a fair chance at Stamford Bridge prior to his move to Liverpool.
Having missed 6 of a possible 8 meetings against the Blues since his switch to Merseyside through injury, this is a rare chance for the England international to get one over on his former club. Sturridge is certainly in fine form in front of goal, scoring 7 times in 10 league starts, with only City strikers Aguero and Iheanacho scoring more often in the Premier League than the Liverpool man (every 111 minutes). As a result, odds of 2.00 from bet365 on the 26-year old to score anytime and haunt his former club are tempting.
