Liverpool vs Aston Villa – Sunday, 4.30pm
It’s time to see if the Reds still have a hangover.
It was a messy evening at Etihad when the pumped city of Pep Guardiola eliminated their frustrations on one side of Liverpool well below the usual standard.
The result was a 4-0 win for former champions, leaving Klopp’s team with the small matter of a twenty-point gap at the top.
Nobody can argue that Liverpool don’t deserve their title and that they didn’t deserve to celebrate, but we expect them to react to what in any case was a heavy and unexpected defeat.
Dean Smith and Aston Villa were already fearing this game from their dangerous position in the relegation zone.
Villa’s first season in the Premier League has been chastening and Anfield is the last place they want to go when they desperately need points.
Liverpool are undefeated here this season in the league, winning all 16 home games.
And after the defeat against City, bookmakers wonder if they will go easy on Villa in this.
It’s not a possibility – haven’t you seen that Klopp interview ?!

The Reds at 17 from 17 went to 4/11 – every time we support this Liverpool team at that price, at home.
Villa may be struggling for life in the Premier League, but so far they have not really managed to shoot when it matters.
Since the championship has returned, they have only collected one point and have been without victory on the road since New Year’s Day in Burnley.
We believe Klopp will have his men ready for this after the one-sided score in City, even if the title is won.
In addition to the Reds to win, support them to score more than three goals in 23/20.
Sadio Mane has scored in three of his last four Premier League games at Anfield.
Trust him in a very generous 21/20 on the net at any time in this.
