Klopp’s troops are looking ahead of Barcelona fixture in the Champions League semi-final next week. This is why the hosts will want to finish the job here as soon as possible to have room to give some rest to their main stars in the second half.Huddersfield have by far the weakest attacking record in the entire league. They scored only 20 goals in 35 outings. They failed to find the back of the net in eight of last nine away games in all competitions. This is why we have to fancy Liverpool to keep a clean sheet at 1.61 odds.
You can also back the Reds to have at least a two-goal lead at the half time at sky-high 2.10 odds. It is a must-take bet based on everything written above.
Liverpool Team News
Jurgen Klopp saw defensive midfielder Fabinho suffer a blow to the head two minutes after his arrival against Cardiff, making this a game that they might just leave him out of. Fellow midfield man Adam Lallana remains out, while center back Dejan Lovren should be fit and ready if required. They do have a match with Barcelona on Wednesday, but that isn’t likely to be looked at too much just yet.
Liverpool Key Man
Mo Salah has scored in two matches running against the Terriers now, including in a tighter than anticipated 0-1 win back in October, making him a player to watch for here. He’s on 19 goals for the season, tied with a couple of others in what is a very tense Golden Boot race. Roberto Firmino is another to watch, as he has had a lot of positive showings in the past against the Terriers. He scored in the two matches before that narrow win earlier this term, making him a likely scorer here.
