| In the first home game under Andoni Iraola at Anfield Road, having in mind the first match it looks like Liverpool should be able to record first three points at the start of the league season at home. With 27 shots, they really should have won the match at St. James' Park. On the other hand, Nottingham's attacking performance against Leeds was disappointing, but they'll be looking to make some changes. Their last visit to Anfield was a bit a suprise as they managed to win 3-0. After all, 8 of the last 10 games ended with a maximum difference of one goal. Liverpool have had a tough time against this opponent recently. Another thing is that Liverpool traditionally present themselves as extremely stable in the first league home game of the season. The Reds have won 12 of the last 13 home opening games and are unbeaten in 22 home opening games since their defeat against Chelsea in 2003. |
