Our prediction for this Premier League match:
Liverpool will look to overtake Man City in top position when they host Watford to their Anfield on Saturday. The Reds are on a nine-game winning run, and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play. Both Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah are back from international duty, while Trent Alexander-Arnold is a major doubt, and he will be assessed ahead of the kick-off. The Hornets, on the other hand, aim to build on a 2-1 win over Southampton.
Watford are eager to escape the relegation zone, but they should not be looking for points in away matches against the title-chasing teams. Ismaila Sarr is back after representing Senegal in the World Cup playoffs, while Cucho should keep his place in the starting XI after he scored a brace in the St. Mary’s Stadium triumph. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team.
