I’m far too confident for this game then I have any right to be.

Imagine if spurs lose the early game and we know a win would pretty much guarantee Europe?

Anyway, back in the real world, 2-1 Liverpool.

I’m going to this, first time at Anfield in all my 49 years. I am also feeling confident for some reason as i was before Spurs. They’ve won 7 on the bounce, but a couple of those were 1-0 home wins over Fulham and Brentford, that arguably could of been draws. Still they have a forward line to be fearful off, but Im not convinced by their midfield or defence.

I hope Emery makes one change for this, hopefully bringing in Kamara for Bailey and shifting McGinn out to the right, to give us a solid looking four across the middle.

An unlikely 2-1 to us (Watkins, McGinn).

We've earned the right to go to Anfield with confidence and so we should given the season we have had. They are on a good run, 7 straight wins but sequences such as that are there to be bought to an end and who better than us to do it? Having said that, they have a CL place to aim for alongside our own ambitions but fortune favours the brave.

0-1

2 things I know for sure:

1. Unai will have a detailed game plan which will be carried out by the team.

2. We will give them a thorough test, or in the old vernacular, "we will give them a game".

I expect us to score at least once, but the odds favour them.

And the refs. That sounds right to me but hope we can get what might be a vital point.

Fear that we are coming up against them at the worst possible time.

Didn't think we'd lose at Man Utd or Wolves but think we will lose this one.

3-1 to them.

So will the ref. Otherwise, nothing to fear, Anfield has been a happy hunting ground for us over the years.

I hope Unai and his team were at the crisp packet stadium last night and i hope he sees that playing such a high line (especially as the pundits now keep pointing it out) could be suicidal with their front 3.

Need a strong ref and VAR team but with them chasing a chumps league place i very much doubt we will get anything go our way.

Just hope we have a chance still going into the Brighton game as that really would be a cup final atmosphere

I fear a low defeat 1-0 with something contentious

If we score first then 1-2 or 2-2.  If they score first then 2-0 or 2-1. Think I've pretty much covered all bases there so I can claim after the game that I'm a genius.

Its like a huge European game for Unai Emery and I think we'll go close .
It may not be enough but we're a huge obstacle in the road these days for the top sides.
A virtually fully fit squad available so I'm going for a 2-2 draw to set us up for the final game.
What an an achievement that would be for the manager and players.
