With Arne Slot at the helm, Liverpool has maintained their relentless attacking style, led by their prolific goal-scorer Mohamed Salah. The Reds’ recent win over Wolverhampton Wanderers kept them at the top of the Premier League table, but they now face a tough challenge against an in-form Aston Villa side that thrives at their home ground.
Ollie Watkins remains the key man for Villa, ready to exploit any gaps left by Liverpool’s high-pressing tactics. Under the guidance of manager Unai Emery, Villa have transformed into a formidable home team, and they’ll look to disrupt Liverpool’s rhythm with their well-organized midfield and quick transitions.
