Liverpool will face Sunderland at Anfield in the Premier League on Saturday.
Former Manchester United striker Michael Owen has predicted on Betvictor.com that Liverpool will win against Sunderland this weekend.
Liverpool will take on Sunderland at Anfield in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.
Owen has predicted the Merseyside outfit to pick up all three points from the encounter.
“It is 40 games since Jurgen Klopp picked an unchanged XI in the Premier League and I wonder if the Reds’ boss will name Daniel Sturridge in his starting XI against Sunderland given the Reds failed to hit the target, despite dominating the game, at Southampton last weekend,” former Liverpool striker Owen wrote on Betvictor.com.
“I don’t expect the Reds to slip up back at Anfield even allowing for the Black Cats recent upturn in fortunes.”
A footnote added: “Michael’s recommendation: Liverpool -2 on the handicap at 11/10.”
Liverpool are in good form at the moment and will head into the match against Sunderland at Anfield as favourites.
The Reds failed to win against Southampton away from home at St. Mary’s Stadium in the Premier League last weekend.
However, the Merseyside will fancy their chances of registering a comfortable victory over Sunderland at Anfield on Saturday afternoon.
Jurgen Klopp’s side are second in the league table at the moment with 27 points from 12 matches, just a point behind leaders Chelsea.
Sunderland currently find themselves second from bottom in the Premier League table with just eight points from 12 matches.
David Moyes’s side are three points behind 17th-placed West Ham United and are in real danger of going down to the Championship at the end of the season.
The Black Cats, though, have won their last two Premier League games.
