Norwich City vs Liverpool - Premier League Preview and Odds

February 15, 2020 17:30pm - Carrow Road (Norwich)

Premier League

Life at the bottom of the table doesn`t get any easier for Norwich City who host league leaders Liverpool at Carrow Road on Saturday.

The Canaries kick-off seven points from safety with their survival hopes diminishing fast. They have won just two of their last 12 Premier League matches and only one of their last nine at home. Their September win against Manchester City now feels like a distant memory but they will cling on to that when they welcome the runaway league leaders on Saturday.

Unfortunately, their opponents arrive in an almost unassailable position at the top of with little pressure on them. In contrast, every point counts for Daniel Farke`s men. They have scored in all-but-one of their home games this season but they face a side who have kept nine clean sheets in their last 10 matches.

Jurgen Klopp`s men need just 18 points to secure the league title. And that`s only if Manchester City play a perfect run-in. They could end the day 25 points clear if they win at Carrow Road. The Reds are unbeaten in their last 20 away games in the league and have won 15 of their last 16. It would be a massive shock if they failed to take all three points.

Predicted line-ups:

Norwich: Krul Aarons, Zimmermann, Godfrey, Byram Tettey, McLean Buendia, Duda, Cantwell Pukki

Liverpool: Alisson Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Van Dijk, Robertson Henderson, Fabinho, Oxlade-Chamberlain Salah, Firmino, Mane

Betting odds and tips

There is nothing to suggest this will not be another routine win for the league leaders. And Norwich could draw their second home blank of the season against the leagues meanest defence.

You can back Liverpool to Win to Nil at 11/8.
