| The reigning English champions have four consecutive wins. In the league table, Slot's team has already climbed to fourth place. Although there is still plenty of room for improvement in their performances, there are many reasons to believe that Liverpool will be able to win their first match for the year against Leeds United. Nevertheless, the visitors from Yorkshire should by no means be underestimated. After initial difficulties and a brief slump, the team managed by Daniel Farke has been remarkably consistent in recent weeks. The guesta have not lost any of their last five Premier League matches. During this period, they also convincingly defeated two higher-ranked opponents, Chelsea and Crystal Palace. 16th place, with a seven-point cushion above the relegation zone is a very respectable position for the newly promoted side. The positive mood surrounding Leeds United came with home wins but the team haven't won an away match in the English top flight since September. For precisely this reason it should be quite a surprise to see the underdogs in this game to win anything against Liverpool. |
