Cardiff City vs Liverpool

Cardiff City have endured a difficult first year back in the Premier League but they do have a chance of avoiding relegation as we go into the final few games of the campaign. The Bluebirds have only spent one season in the top tier previous to this and they were relegated in that season, so they’ll be keen to avoid that same fate this time around, although they do sit in the bottom three with just four games remaining.

Liverpool are in with a real chance of winning the Premier League title for the first time this season. The Merseysiders have been in a two-horse race with Manchester City for the trophy this season and as the campaign draws to a fascinating close that is still very much the case. With four games remaining the Reds sit top of the table, two points clear of the Citizens, although the second-placed side do have a game in hand as things stand.

As they continue to fight for silverware in the Champions League as well, Jurgen Klopp’s men may be wary of burning out in these final stages of the campaign but they’ll feel they have enough quality in the tank to win all of their remaining games and pile the pressure on Pep Guardiola and his side. Three points here at odds of 1/5 with William Hill could be the difference with City set to take on Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United in their next two league fixtures.

We’re backing the visitors to do exactly that here. The Reds should have too much quality for the Bluebirds and they’ve been particularly impressive at the back this season, with Virgil van Dijk instilling a real calmness and confidence among their backline. Liverpool have kept clean sheets in their last two games (prior to Wednesday night’s Champions League clash with Porto) so we can see them winning out to nil again here at 8/11 with Bet365.

After something of a lean spell in front of goal, Mo Salah appears to have found his shooting boots again in recent weeks. The Egyptian forward scored a stunning and vital goal in the win over Southampton before a terrific strike against Chelsea on Sunday secured his side the points and took his Premier League tally for the season up to 19 goals. We’re backing Salah for another in this game at odds of 17/20 with William Hill.
