This Sunday 12am ....

Live Ch-27 .

Venue : Our Fortress Anfield .

Full-back Alvaro Arbeloa, who pulled out of last weekend's win at Manchester United with a hamstring problem, is expected to return to Liverpool's side.

Midfielder Xabi Alonso (ankle) and winger Yossi Benayoun (hamstring), also have a good chance of being involved.

Aston Villa striker John Carew is pushing for a start after scoring as a substitute against Stoke and Tottenham.

Midfielder Steve Sidwell and defender Wilfred Bouma are in line for a return after recovering from ankle problems.

Liverpool (from):

Reina,

Arbeloa, Carragher, Hyypia, Skrtel, Dossena, Aurelio,

Babel, Benayoun, Mascherano, Riera, Gerrard, Alonso,

Torres, Kuyt,

Agger, Cavalieri, Lucas, Ngog.

BBC Mark Lawrenson: "There is a massive feel-good factor at Anfield. They've had three marvellous results, are in the next round of the Champions League, are back in the title race and their manager has just signed a new contract.

If you look at Villa, results are going against them, they are struggling to score and, would you believe, their own supporters booed them last week which I find quite amazing as they've had a fine season.

With all that in mind I'm going for a Liverpool victory."

Verdict: 2-0

Expect something like 3-0 bah, I foresee a thrashing for Villa. But whats important is 3 more points in the bag, thats for sure.

GO LIVERPOOOL

aston villa is hard to beat. If liverpool fail to win this one, they can kiss goodbye to the title race. If they win, they can still cling on to the small hope.

skythewood SG

will aston villa gets into champions league?

Poolman SG

The Villians feeling the 10sion now ..... they never being into this before , the lads obviously cannot handle the mental stress those last burst can cause , unlike Arsenal , Chelsea and Liverpool , plus Champions United , all been thru this all since the beginning of the UCL .

Poolman SG

Same old say : When u expect Liverpool to win , they flopped ! When u ( against United ) expect them to lose , they won !

Poolman SG

Of course i would say Villa , can caused major problems to us , especially with that Norwegian tower fella John Carew , plus Emile Heskey , their aerial threats can caused our 2 centre halves of Skrtel and Carra some headaches . I think Hyypia will play ahead of Skrtel .

Or maybe Rafa will stick to the winning combination .

These 3 young fella can really run , and fast .

We stop them , we stop Villa .

Villa problem on midfield , Liverpool will bully their midfield . Villa's Barry not enough to help their mf .

Poolman SG

I predict a 2-1 win .

chrisbenoit SG

First you say 2-0, then you say 2-1. Make up your mind lah.

Im surprised the 3-0 scoreline only offers $11, thats really low. Previously I had taken Liverpool to wipe Man Utd 4-1 at a whopping $150, was really on cloud 9 when I collected the thick wads of cash. Then went to try my luck at horse racing on wednesday, lost a whopping $1170+. Alamak, I think I am going to stop betting on horses.

Poolman SG

First you say 2-0, then you say 2-1. Make up your mind lah.

i nvr say 2-1 . Mark Lawrenson predicted 2-1 , i predict a clean sheet .

kopiosatu SG

all so confident

liverpool high chance to disappoint.

its better to be pessimistic when it comes to liverpool.

if they win, then its a bonus. if they don't get anything out of it, u can tell yourself that its normal

against fulham and spurs, man utd and chelsea have gift-wrapped a possible 3 points advantage to liverpool.

if the reds cannot capitalise on such opportunity, they dont deserve the title.

well said ....

HyuugaNeji SG

villa will need to beat pool to stay level on points with arsenal. I bet villa is desperate now as well. However, if liverpool tries really hard, they should still beat villa.

dmuse SG

Against a team of young vigorous atheleticism like Villa, the Kops has to take their chances - no two ways about it. They will have chances but if they fail to capitalize, that's it for them. They have to prove that they are worthy to succeed the other Reds.

When Liverpool plays, you don't bet! They could just prove you wrong - everytime!

Poolman SG

The players from Merseyside they has to understand , at this stage of the season , they must be professional enough , not to slip at the last moment .

Now when chances arise , they must be pro enough to gain back the initiatives .
