📏 Form Guide
Liverpool
WLWWWW 📈
Liverpool, buoyed by their previous result, will be hoping for more of the same after a 1-2 Premier League triumph over Wolverhampton Wanderers.
In that match, Liverpool managed 56% possession and 10 attempts at goal with 6 of them on target. For Liverpool, the scorers were Ibrahima Konaté (45') and Mohamed Salah (61'). Wolverhampton Wanderers had 7 attempts at goal with 3 of them on target. Rayan Aït-Nouri (56') scored for Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Their more recent scorelines highlight the fact that things are going according to plan in the Liverpool rearguard. Liverpool have given the opposition little, seeing the number of goals that have gone in at their end over the course of their previous six outings standing at 4.
Bologna
LDDDWD
In their last game, Bologna drew 1-1 in the Serie A tie with Atalanta.
In that match, Bologna managed 36% possession and 5 shots at goal with 1 of them on target. The scorer for Bologna was Santiago Castro (46'). Atalanta had 23 shots at goal with 4 on target. Lazar Samardžić (90') scored for Atalanta.
The stats don’t lie, and Bologna have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, seeing opposing sides hit 8 goals overall. Defensively, Bologna could really do with shoring things up. We will have to see if that trend will end up being sustained in this game.
📋 Team News: Liverpool
Nearly everyone is up for selection, with just a single fitness concern for the Liverpool boss Arne Slot to be concerned about due to a largely intact group. Harvey Elliott (Broken foot) will miss out.
It seems likely that The Reds look set to kick off with a 4-2-3-1 system and select Alisson Becker, T. Alexander-Arnold, Ibrahima Konate, Virgil van Dijk, Andrew Robertson, Ryan Gravenberch, Alexis Mac Allister, Mohamed Salah, Dominik Szoboszlai, Cody Gakpo and Darwin Nunez.
📋 Team News: Bologna
Bologna manager Vincenzo Italiano has to choose a team with limited availability. Nicolò Cambiaghi (Cruciate ligament surgery), Oussama El Azzouzi (Knee injury) and Lewis Ferguson (Cruciate ligament surgery) won’t be making appearances.
It’s our belief that Rossoblu could decide to elect for a 4-3-3 formation by sending out Lukasz Skorupski, Stefan Posch, Sam Beukema, Jhon Lucumi, C. Lykogiannis, Michel Aebischer, Remo Freuler, Giovanni Fabbian, Riccardo Orsolini, Santiago Castro and Dan Ndoye.
💡 Prediction
It’s looking like Bologna will need to be at their best to score against a Liverpool team who have the capability to really dictate the terms of this match.
Our selection here is for a comprehensive 3-0 margin for Liverpool after 90 minutes.
