Liverpool Vs Swansea Preview

Jurgen Klopp will be hoping to continue Liverpool's good run of form, after a convincing 4-1 win over Manchester City and a Europa league win over Bordeaux. Thiswill be made much easier for the reds ifmidfielder Philippe Coutinho is deemed fit to play.Livepool will also be making a late decision over the fitness of Daniel Sturridge.

Meanwhile Swansea have not beenas stong only having won 1 premier league game sincethe End of August after an initially promising start to their campaign.In addition to poor results recently Swansea will be missing the presence of ex-Liverpool player Jonjo Shelvey who misses the game through suspension.

Liverpool have not lost in their last 7 meetings against Swansea. The Swans have only won 1 of their last 7 premier league away games.The statistics favour a liverpool win.

Player To Watch
This season Roberto Firmino ha sbeen hot and cold but has played very wellin recent weeks. However, he had a very good performance against City and with Coutinho likely to be left on the bench he wil play in his favoured position and be given the ability to roam

Prediction
I predict a 2-0 win for Liverpool who look very likely to keep their momentum

Should Mourinho Go?

Most of us can only imagine the kind of pressure that the managers of top sports teams are under. Pressure from fans and owners to gt results in addition to he constant media scrutiny. Mourinho is one of the best managers in the world having won 2 Champions Leagues and 15 domestic competitions in Italy, Spain England and Portugal.

In addition to this both teams will be looking at claiming the league title for the season making this a significant game. Klopp has performed well against top 6 teams since the start of his tenure as Liverpool manager and the strength of Liverpool's attack at the start of the season means this trend is likely to continue. In addition to this it will be interesting to see whether Coutinho will make an appearance and what impact he will have after a summer of speculation over his future amidst interest from Barcelona.
