Our prediction for this Premier League match:
Liverpool and Norwich City face each other at Anfield in a David-vs-Goliath clash. The Reds aim to melt Man City’s advantage in the Premier League standings, while the Canaries are eager to escape the relegation zone. Jurgen Klopp’s troops failed to impress in their last league match, but thanks to Fabinho’s goal they somehow picked up all three points from the match. Liverpool aim to extend their winning run to five games, and they are seen as hot favourites to win Saturday’s clash. Jurgen Klopp has a full squad to choose from.
The visitors, on the other hand, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 4-0 loss to Man City, and given their poor away record in the 2021/2022 season, we do not believe that they are capable of making a miracle at Anfield. Both Andrew Omobamidele and Jacob Sorensen are out of contention for the Canaries, as well as experienced goalkeeper Tim Krul.
Highlighted Player (Sadio Mané):
Sadio Mane is a Senegalese footballer who plays for Liverpool as a winger. Mane was born in Sedhiou Senegal on April 10, 1992, but he made his senior debut at French club Metz. In 2012 he moved to Red Bull Salzburg, with the pacey winger scoring 31 goals in 63 appearances for the club in the Austrian Bundesliga.
Mane then decided to take a step forward in his career as he joined famous Premier League club Liverpool for a fee of £34 million, signing a five-year contract with the Reds. The Senegal international quickly established himself as a first-team regular at Liverpool and, no doubt, he helped the Anfield outfit make it to the 2017/2018 Champions League final.
Speaking of trophies, Sadio Mane won the Austrian Bundesliga with Salzburg in the 2013/2014 season. In 2017 he was named Liverpool player of the year for the 2016/2017 season. Sadio Mane made his Senegal debut in 2012 and he was part of the Senegal team that participated at the 2012 Olympic tournament.
Highlighted Team (Norwich):
After spending only one season in the Premier League, Norwich City dropped to the Championship at the end of the 2015/2016 campaign. Norwich City are located in Norwich, Norfolk and they welcome their rivals at Carrow Road.
The stadium was built and opened in 1935 and the capacity of the venues is 27,137 (all-seater). However the stadium’s record attendance is 43,984. The Canaries have won two League Cup trophies (1973, 1975) and their main rivals are Ipswich Town. The two teams have been facing each other in the East Anglian Derby since 1902.
The colour of Norwich City’s home kit is yellow and green and that is the main reason why they are known as the Canaries. The likes of Kevin Keeland, Ian Culverhouse, Steve Bruce, Duncan Forbes, Mark Bowen, Darren Huckerby, Ian Crook, Martin Peters, Darren Eadier, Chris Sutton and Iwan Roberts are notable footballers who played for the Carrow Road outfit in the past.
