Premier League
8pm Wednesday

Stoke will look to set-plays to ruffle Liverpool's feathers and they know they can have success against statistically the worst defence in the top seven.

The Reds have conceded eight goals in their last three away matches and they’ll have to be solid to repel a Stoke side who have beaten Arsenal and drawn with Manchester United at home this term.

Liverpool are desperately hard to stop scoring and this looks like a game with goals, probably at both ends.

Recommendation
Both teams to score & over 2.5 goals
