Predicting Liverpool’s next five Premier League results

Add as preferred source on Google

Liverpool will return from the international break looking to press on with their season after coming into a good bit of form of late.

A good draw at Man City followed a brilliant 5-0 away win in the Champions League, while hard-fought wins against Sheffield United and West Ham have ensured the Reds are in third in the Premier League table.

Jurgen Klopp’s men, though, face a tricky and busy run when they do come back in around 10 days’ time. A tough home test against Leicester is first up, while Wolves and Tottenham will also visit Anfield. Away from Merseyside, Liverpool have two easier looking away games at Brighton and Fulham respectively.

So, just how will Liverpool do and will they manage to take maximum points from a hard looking run of fixtures? We’ve taken a look here with our predictions.

Leicester City – H

This is as hard as it could get for Liverpool straight off the back of the break. The Foxes are playing brilliantly and currently sit top of the Premier League with 18 points.

Brendan Rodgers will look to get one over his former team, too. However, Liverpool will have enough to worry Leicester as well, making for an intriguing clash at Anfield. Tough one to call this, which could be decided with a moment or magic. A point wouldn’t be too bad.

Prediction – Liverpool 1 -1 Leicester

Brighton – A

As away fixtures come, Brighton will be a nice one for Liverpool to get their teeth into. The Seagulls are hardly known for being impossible to break down and they’ll likely play an open game as well.

This should leave plenty of space for the likes of Mane and Salah to exploit. Liverpool will win comfortably here, improving their goal difference in the process.

Prediction – Brighton 0 – 4 Liverpool

Wolves – H

Nuno Santo’s men will make it a tough day at the office for Liverpool and Conor Coady will be determined to keep a clean sheet against his former club.

However, Liverpool will have enough in the locker here to see off Wolves. Expect a fairly tight affair and Raul Jimenez to cause issues but the Reds to just run out narrow winners.

Prediction – Liverpool 2 -1 Wolves

Fulham – A

Like Brighton, this is a perfect game for Liverpool to get into their groove and, potentially, even get away with playing some of the fringe players.

Put simply, Fulham won’t have enough to match the Reds and will be overwhelmed. Another easy victory for the Reds here.

Prediction – Fulham 0 – 3 Liverpool

Tottenham – H

The toughest game of the lot and if Spurs can come into this at full strength and playing as they currently are, Jose Mourinho might just spoil Liverpool’s party once again.

Harry Kane and Heung-Min Son could have a field day if Liverpool don’t sort out their back four issues. This could be a loss for the Reds, and at the same time provide everyone with a good indication of if Spurs are genuine contenders.

Prediction – Liverpool 1 – 2 Tottenham
