"Liverpool's Premier League title defence might already be up in smoke, but maintaining their current position of fourth come the end of this season is still absolutely essential to the club. Those Alexander Isak instalments are not going to pay themselves. Arne Slot will have enjoyed this week's results thus far, with pretty much all the teams around them dropping points."
"With the Mo Salah debacle calming down and Florian Wirtz finally finding the net, things are suddenly looking up for the Reds. Leeds are on something of a run, unbeaten in their last five. Their only objective is clear: stay up, by hook or by crook. Philosophy, identity and style can wait: just lump it up to Dominic Calvert-Lewin and pray that the big man can keep his own run going"
Liverpool's Premier League title defence has faltered, but retaining fourth place remains crucial to finance transfers. Several rivals dropped points this week, easing pressure on Liverpool. Villa lost at Arsenal; Chelsea drew with Bournemouth and are now without a manager; Manchester United drew 1-1 with Wolves after deploying an ultra-defensive setup; Sunderland face Manchester City. Mo Salah's situation has eased and Florian Wirtz scored, improving Liverpool's outlook. Leeds are unbeaten in five and focus solely on avoiding relegation. Dominic Calvert-Lewin has scored in six consecutive matches, pulling Leeds six points above the drop. Kick-off at Anfield is 5.30pm GMT.
