lake district canary 4,540 Posted September 15, 2015 Not had a decent result agains L''pool since the 1-1 and the statement of intent Grant Holt made with his goal that day - and haven''t actually beaten them since 1993. But they don''t appear to be the force they were a couple of seasons ago - and we are definitely stronger than we were two seasons ago. So can we get a result there? I''ll say yes, we can - if we play at our best. I''m going for a 3-2 win to us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BroadstairsR 2,188 Posted September 15, 2015 Traditionally a home win and one of those games we have been conditioned to expect defeat.Liverpool are not that hot at the moment though and we will take a bit of impetus to Anfield so a decent away point would be nice, an not entirely unexpected, IMO.

cornish sam 960 Posted September 15, 2015 Was it really ''93!?!? Blimey, I was at that game (it was probably only me second NCFC match) sitting in the Anfield Road (family) stand, I accidently spat gum into the hair of the person in front of me stiffling my celebrations when Goss scored and then to my shame spent the rest of the game hunched forward in case anyone noticed it there!Despite the result the Kop was still in fine voice as the scousers said their goodbyes to it...

lharman7 39 Posted September 15, 2015 Hate to be a doom and gloom monger but i really think this game is shaping up as a loss and maybe a big one. We always seem to be the side where if the opposition have been doing badly and us well then it usually goes against us.Will take a fighting (attacking) draw now.

Lessingham Canary 99 Posted September 15, 2015 I will go for 1-1, cannot underestimate them at this moment, for me a lot depends on who they start with, I can see them going for it with Ings and Benteke starting and possibly Lallana, we will have to be at our best to sneak a win, and if anyone can mastermind that, Alex can !

Salopian 1 Posted September 15, 2015 Given our generous defence, currently about third worst in goals conceded, the question is can we score sufficient to neutralise what we give away?If we play as we did against Bournemouth in the second half, a draw is possible, and if we become better at converting chances then a win is not inconceivable. Most likely score? - 1-1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Essjayess 307 Posted September 15, 2015 Oh the fun of predicting...this fixture is not as easy to predict this season...previous years we got used to Suarez enjoying himself against City. I think it could depend on Brendan Rodgers thoughts on his formation..if he finally finds a style where his team actually supply Benteke..then i will say 5-1 Liverpool with Benteke doing a Suarez on us. Just our bad luck that they likely will have all their big guns, like Coutinho and Sturridge in their side to supply Benteke.But if that doesnt happen, and Alex can get City into a attacking fearless mood, then City could just get a 2-2 or even a 3-2 win. So bleh..i cant give a prediction because its so hard to call. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ricardo 7,395 Posted September 15, 2015 One of the more difficult away trips but we have had a bit of success at Anfield over the years. If the defence can keep it tight a point is always possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indy 3,307 Posted September 15, 2015 Liverpool are a bogey team, no Suarez this time round and as 3-1 appears to be a reoccurring theme I''m going for this as a result.Head says 3-1 Liverpool, heart says 3-1 city. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gainer the Gopher 0 Posted September 16, 2015 Liverpool are out of their depth. We''re not. There''s no cohesion, and seemingly no real plan. They scored that great goal to start mounting a late comeback vs ManU, and a minute later were down 2again, and out of contention. 1 - 2, or maybe we''ll keep a clean sheet and win 0 - 2.

Tumbleweed 106 Posted September 16, 2015 We saw at Southampton that early league struggles and a Euro away trip don''t necessarily give us any advantage.I''m with Ginja and Salopian, I reckon we will be competitive and are well capable of scoring a goal or two. But our defence still looks too prone to enough gaffes to pretty much ensure they will score at some point. Tettey will be very busy, need him on top form and not get a silly sending off.I do think we have a chance, a small one, but I reckon 3-1 is the most likely outcome.

Highland Canary 76 Posted September 16, 2015 A ground we''ve got the odd result over the years. Hoping for a repeat of O''Neill''s 30 yard winning goal in the early 80s (much live the one at Ipswich in the 3-2 Boxing Day win). Rodgers'' job depends on a victory on Sunday and I think that driver will take Liverpool to a 3-1 victory. At least they''ll be better weather for travelling than the freeze of the last Suarez inspired rout. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Woodman 92 Posted September 16, 2015 I''d love us to be positive, attacking and go for it, but unfortunately I think that will mean we could get picked off. Despite the result at Old Trafford, I saw enough to see that they have good quality going forward and Benteke is always a threat. Is Coutinho back from suspension? Sadly, I can only see a Liverpool win, by 2 clear goals, but we certainly have the ability to score against them, they''re not very good defensively. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
