It's Character Forming 1,160 Posted September 18, 2015 2-0 is Lawro''s default prediction when a bigger team is at home to a small team. On average it''s a sensible prediction - that''s why the bigger teams end higher up the table. Most neutrals would agree.Interesting thing for us is whether we can take advantage of Liverpool''s difficulties, and how AN gets on with his first game against a big Prem team. I''d say we have a better chance than the last couple of times we went there ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Platonic 1 Posted September 18, 2015 I think Benteke will fancy his chances against our defense, so the key will be if we are able to cut off the supply to him, and certainly not give away too many set pieces in the final third - I think AN will have us pressing them well and hopefully Benteke will be left frustrated. On the counter I''d expect us to have a few chances too, so I would stick my neck out and go for a one goal win for us but our recent inability to keep a clean sheet could do for us - I''m going for 1-1.

Haggerdoo 6 Posted September 18, 2015 Much as I''d like us to come away with a point - I think fear we may be on the end of another 3 or 4 goal defeat - bit like Southampton away all over again - hope I''m proved wrong but got a horrible feeling about this one. Rumors are that Sturridge and Henderson may be back on Sunday too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swjf50 0 Posted September 18, 2015 I can''t see us keeping a clean sheet unfortunately so I would think 2-0 or 3-1 to Liverpool. I hope to be proved wrong Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

grefstad 0 Posted September 18, 2015 I''m sadly on a 4-1 loss. A Martin howler gifting them the first, then a dubious penalty, Coutinho long range freekick (from a needless Martin freekick giveaway) with Ruddy reacting very slowly (usually does from range), Mbokani to reduce, and Pool to get a late one to complete the rout.Hope I''m wrong Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hoola Han Solo 448 Posted September 18, 2015 How about a bit of belief and faith before the game, instead of running down our players. Alex Neil thinks we can go to Anfield and get a result and so do I. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Patches OHoolahan 0 Posted September 19, 2015 2-1 to City. Howson and Jerome to score for us, Benteke for the scousers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
93vintage 16 Posted September 19, 2015 I can''t see us winning as it''s very uncommon that Liverpool lose three in a row, or two home games in a row. So I think 1-1 is about right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RustysRevenge 0 Posted September 20, 2015 I can see City having a good game with decent spells of pressure and will score, probably Howson but ultimately will concede a couple of sloppy goals to set pieces. Narrow 2-1 loss. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gainer the Gopher 0 Posted September 20, 2015 So out of 60 or so predictions, only about 4 of us are approaching this game with the AN/Messiah mindset of expecting to win the next game while the rest of you are Chris Houghton. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sgncfc 1,227 Posted September 20, 2015 The whole build up for this game has been about how Liverpool have to win. Rodgers is facing a crowd revolt, Sturridge is back, so is Coutinho. Lovren has been dropped.I just can''t see us being able to cope with Benteke, Sturridge and Coutinho. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
93vintage 16 Posted September 20, 2015 A few of us got this right - myself, Lessingham Canary, Platonic, Salopian and Mrs Miggins.A good point, but we rode our luck quite a bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
