Liverpool’s campaign so far has seen them accrue one point this season

Having dropped a total of four points in their past two games, Jurgen Klopp won’t be devastated by those results, but will be eager to secure a consistent run of form.

Also, a draw statistic of one in one game is not all bad, but unfortunately will not bring the success Jurgen Klopp’s men wishes for ultimately. With one point (0W, 0L and 1D), they are established in tenth position in the League having drawn one game.

A victory for Liverpool would put them on 4 points.

Good Attacking Performance

Liverpool will be pleased to have a good goal scoring record so far this season (2). Their stand out attacking players have been Mohamed Salah (1), Darwin Nunez (1), and Alisson. Jurgen Klopp will know the risks of constantly leaking goals throughout the season, with two goals conceded so far. He needs to find a way to shore-up the defence, in order that opponents are unable to take advantage of this.

Liverpool’s squad will likely be depleted of seven of their key players when they start on Monday, due to injury or illness.
