Visitors Norwich City struggle for survival in the Premier League, but have a chance to win something through the FA Cup. Although Liverpool could serve as the end of the road for them.
However, Norwich has had an excellent run-up to this stage, including the elimination of Wolverhampton Wanderers in the previous round.
Match Preview and Prediction
Host Liverpool FC was victorious in their last outing in the EFL Cup against Chelsea. Goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher saved Chelsea’s Kepa Arrizabalaga’s final spot-kick to help the club lift its ninth trophy.
Jürgen Klopp, Liverpool FC’s boss, was able to tame Chelsea’s frontline by repelling and attacking with full strength. Liverpool’s best defence consisting of Andrew Robertson, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Virgil van Dijk and Joel Matip had a hectic day and successfully stopped Chelsea’s threat.
Klopp already has the first trophy of the season, and there’s no sign he would be willing to give away the FA Cup at this time at the expense of saving his best legs for the Premier League title chase. Klopp is expected to approach the game with the best legs.
Norwich City has come a long way in the FA Cup this season amid struggles in the Premier League that currently pose a significant threat to their survival. That being said, the Yellow Canaries are focused on getting beyond this round, even at the expense of Liverpool.
Norwich’s only win in recent times was the 1-0 FA Cup defeat of Wolverhampton Wanderers. The club has, however, lost their last three matches in the Premier League.
For Liverpool, it could be an easy ride while Norwich could be aiming at a trophy through the FA Cup.
Score Prediction: 4-2
Team News
Liverpool FC
Caoimhin Kelleher’s heroic save gave Liverpool a well-deserved win over Chelsea. The Reds had a five-star performance, which much credit to the defence spearhead by Andrew Robertson and Trent Alexander-Arnold.
Klopp has minor injuries concerns and might give some youth players a chance. Thiago Alcantara is out with a hamstring. Roberto Firmino would sit out due to a groin strain.
Norwich City
Norwich City, an injury-hit side, would have to do battle with the Reds without some vital first-team players.
Adam Idah and Andrew Omobamidele have been ruled out of the game.
