Liverpool travel to Sheffield United in the Premier League’s early kick-off on Saturday, looking to maintain their 100% record in the top-flight this season.
Jurgen Klopp’s side have won each of their 6 league games so far and have now their last 15 Premier League matches.
They come into this match having beaten Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in the previous round. A stunning Trent Alexander-Arnold free-kick and a header from Roberto Firmino gave the Reds an impressive away victory.
So, can Liverpool continue their winning streak by claiming back-to-back away league victories?
Sheffield United have made an impressive start to the season following their promotion back to the Premier League.
The Blades boast a record of W2-D2-L2 and only Liverpool and Leicester City have a better defensive record in the top-flight.
A hard-fought 2-0 win away at Everton last time out was Sheff Utd’s second clean sheet of the campaign and Chris Wilder’s men have been extremely tough to break down this term.
They picked up an eye-catching draw against Chelsea recently and have scored in all but one of their six league games so far.
However, the team will have to be at its absolute best to tame the frightening Liverpool attack.
The two teams last met in the Premier League in 2006/07 and Liverpool were unbeaten against the Blades that season.
Sheff Utd managed a 1-1 draw at Bramall Lane but Liverpool picked up a convincing 4-0 win in the reverse fixture at Anfield.
The Reds last lost to Sheff Utd in the Premier League all the way back in 1994 and it would take a special performance on Saturday to end Sheff Utd’s winless run against Liverpool.
Liverpool’s front three have certainly picked up where they left off last season, with goals and assists flying in at an alarming rate.
In the Premier League this term, Mohamed Salah has 4 goals and 3 assists, Sadio Mane has scored 4 and made 1, and Roberto Firmino has netted 3 times while also registering 3 assists.
Despite Sheff Utd’s impressive defensive record this season, it’s going to be a difficult task for the team to keep Liverpool’s attacking talent quiet.
Liverpool are obviously the favorites but the Blades are likely to put up a good fight.
Forebet predicts that both teams will score but Liverpool will claim the 3 points.
