Liverpool vs Qarabag Preview & Tips
Liverpool secured a crucial 3-0 win over Marseille in their seventh Champions League outing as they moved up to fourth in the competition with one game to play.
Qarabag can assure themselves of a place in the top 24 with a win, with the travelling side currently two points clear of Napoli in 25th.
- Liverpool have won to nil in their last two European matches
- Qarabag failed to score in their last European away game against Napoli (2-0)
Head To Head
This will be the first time the pair have met in a competitive football match.
Liverpool Form
Despite slipping to embarrassing defeats at the hands of Galatasaray (1-0) and PSV (4-1), Liverpool find themselves on the cusp of a top eight spot in the Champions League this season.
Wins over Atletico Madrid, Eintracht Frankfurt, Real Madrid, Inter Milan and Marseille has seen the Reds beat some very strong sides, with their last two wins over Inter and Marseille ending in victories to nil.
Victory will assure the Reds of a top eight spot, and it could see them finish in second if results go their way. With a win crucial, I back Liverpool to battle to a third consecutive clean sheet in Europe this week as they stay clear of the likes of PSG and Newcastle, who battle in midweek.
Qarabag Form
Qarabag were finally able to end a run of four matches without a win after defeats to Athletic Bilbao, Napoli and Ajax along with a draw against Chelsea.
Their 3-2 win over Eintracht Frankfurt in round seven has kept their hopes of snaring a playoff spot alive as they moved into 18th, two points clear of Napoli in 25th.
While the travelling side arrive on the back of a win, winning at Anfield in Europe is an incredibly tough assignment. The away side have lost two of their three on the road this season, and I predict that they will put their place in the top 24 at risk.
Verdict
I am backing Liverpool to secure a vital win and a clean sheet as they book their place in the next round of the Champions League in style.
