Liverpool will take on Watford on Saturday in 2019/20 Premier League as the season moves ahead. The Reds go into this game as the favourites.

Kick-off : 1:30 PM (Local)

Venue : Anfield, Liverpool

Liverpool have been exceptional this season as they are yet to loose a match after almost half a season already. They would like to professionally continue that streak as they aim for that coveted PL title.

Needless to mention The Reds position in the points table as they are first after 16 matches with 46 points. The goal difference is a healthy +26.

Next challenge is Watford, the bottom placed team in the points table. Shouldn’t be that difficult to get maximum three points from this match.

Jurgen Klopp would tell his players to be focused on the task in hand no matter the size of the difficulty and get the job done.

They will have to play their brand of football which is dominating the game of play. Having possession and getting enough to win the match. A tight defence will be needed as well a supporting midfield with attackers firing.

On the other hand, Watford have had a poor season so far as they find themselves struggling in the Premier League. They will have to find ways to get ot of trouble before it’s too late.

The Hornets are currently 20th in the points table after 16 matches with just 9 points to their name. The goal difference is -21.

Liverpool away will be a hard task and Watford will have to be ready of the challenge. They need to give it their all.

Watford will need to have a good game at the back if they are to take something from Anfield. Also need to be clinical with their finishing. I wish them luck.

Liverpool have a good record against Watford and they will look to continue the good work.

Team news and possible line-ups

Danny Welbeck, Tom Cleverley, Sebastian Prodl and Jose Holebas will all be unavailable for Watford for the weekend game as due to injuries.

As for Liverpool, Joel Matip and Fabinho will both be not available as due to injuries. While Dejan Lovren is a doubt.
