West Bromwich Albion’s long stint in the Premier League is on the verge of coming to an end, and while their win against Manchester United was impressive, it was merely a stay of execution. On the other hand, Liverpool are one of the most exciting teams in Europe right now as they attempt to become the first English side since 2012 to win the Champions League.
West Brom
West Brom should have a ‘nothing to lose’ mentality at this stage, because everyone is expecting them to go down. If they go out there and play with the kind of confidence they had against United last weekend, then there’s every chance they could secure another surprise result.
Team News
Evans and Robson-Kanu should return, but Daniel Sturridge is ineligible to feature against Liverpool.
Liverpool
When you’re just a few games away from a potential Champions League Final berth, it’s hard to stay focused on the task at hand. Still, Jurgen Klopp won’t allow Liverpool to get complacent, and they’ll go into this game knowing they’ve got more than enough to dispatch of Darren Moore’s side.
Team News
Gomez and Lovren could feature, although there will likely be a handful of changes due to the impending Roma game.
Factors to Consider
- The Baggies could be relegated this weekend if results go against them.
- Liverpool are unbeaten in their last nine Premier League games against West Brom.
- Roberto Firmino is one game away from his 100th PL outing for Liverpool.
- If matches finished at half-time this season, West Bromwich Albion would be 12th.
- West Brom beat Liverpool in the FA Cup earlier this season.
Conclusion
West Brom will throw everything they’ve got at the Reds, but at the end of the day, they’ve just got too much momentum on their side. We’ll go for 3-1 Liverpool.
