Huddersfield Town
The Terriers are in danger of slipping into the relegation mire in the Premier League and they currently sit only 2 points above the drop zone. David Wagner’s men have only won once in 2018 – in round 3 of the FA Cup against Bolton Wanderers and need to start picking up points quickly. Goals have seemingly been hard to come by all season for Huddersfield with Laurent Depoitre the club’s leading goal scorer with 5 goals this term.
Liverpool
The Reds have been in great form in recent weeks and although their 18 game unbeaten streak in all competitions came to an end at Swansea on Monday evening. Jurgen Klopp has guided his men to 4th in the Premier League table, with 47 points from their opening 24 games and they have only lost three times in the league all season. Mohamed Salah has notched 24 goals for Liverpool this term in all competitions and the Egyptian has been one of the stand out players in the Premier League.
Head to Head
Liverpool hold a slender 31:28 lead in the head to head record between the two sides whilst there have been a further 17 draws shared between the two London clubs.
The Reds ran out comfortable 3-0 winners in the reverse fixture back in October thanks to goals from Daniel Sturridge, Roberto Firmino and Gini Wijnaldum.
