Top of the table meets the very bottom on Friday as Liverpool are looking to snatch an easy three-pointer against the already-relegated Huddersfield Town side in 36th round of the Premier League. It should really be a one-way street for the Reds who head into the fixture as massive favourites.Jurgen Klopp’s men won nine on the spin across competitions coming into this tie. They bagged at least two goals in each of these nine affairs and we definitely expect them to keep such fantastic attacking form going against the weakest opposition in the division.
The Terriers had a disappointing campaign which saw them snatch no more than 14 points in 35 games so far. They lost 12 of past 13 league outings and we just can’t imagine the scenario in which they would cause any troubles for title hopefuls here.

Liverpool FC Form & Team News
Liverpool earned a 2-0 victory away at Cardiff City last time out. They laboured slightly in the first half but found their rhythm after the break with goals from Georginio Wijnaldum and James Milner sealing the win.
The Reds are neck and neck with champions Manchester City in the title race and have won their last nine matches. They are priced at 1.07 to win on Friday but given the form of Sadio Mane, a win inspired by a goal from the Senegalese is set at 1.67.
Mane has scored seven goals in his last nine matches across all competitions and should continue in attack on Friday. The Senegal forward should feature alongside Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah, who has two goals in his last three matches.
Liverpool vs Huddersfield Head to Head
Liverpool have a 25-22 edge with 13 draws from 60 previous matches against Huddersfield. The Reds have won the last four meetings between both sides, including a 1-0 victory in the reverse fixture at the John Smith’s Stadium.
Liverpool vs Huddersfield Match Up
Mane has seven goals in his last nine matches across all competitions and his combination with Salah and Firmino has been prolific for Liverpool. The Reds also have the best defence in the Premier League, keeping three clean sheets in their last four matches.
Huddersfield have had problems in attack this season and are the team with the fewest goals in the Premier League. Mounie and Grant are unlikely to get any joy against Virgil Van Dijk and Joel Matip at the back for Liverpool.
