Prediction before the match Liverpool vs Aston Villa
It was thought that the victory over Frankfurt in the Champions League, ending a series of 4 consecutive defeats in all competitions, would help Liverpool's spirit. But no, Arne Slot's team continued to be bogged down. They lost to Brentford to drop to 7th in the Premier League, then continued to suffer defeat against Crystal Palace and left the League Cup front. All gave the feeling that Slot had lost control of the situation and had no effective solution to return to the winning path.
Meanwhile, Aston Villa are playing very well. In contrast to Liverpool - the team that had a dream start in the Premier League 2025/26, Unai Emery's team created a terrible streak of 6 matches without a win in all competitions. But then, if The Reds started to decline, Villa turned around and created an impressive winning streak. They and Liverpool are currently at the intersection with 15 points after 9 rounds, promising to create a dramatic match at Anfield tonight.
In many aspects, the home team Liverpool is of course rated higher. However, the difference in spirit and form can decide this match, despite history being against Villa.
Form, history of confrontations between Liverpool and Aston Villa
Aston Villa have lost all 11 of their last Premier League games against the reigning champions, and have won just one of their last 30 (1-0 v Manchester United in December 2009). The West Midlands side have also failed to win in their last seven trips to Anfield. Liverpool have won 11 and lost just one of their last 15 Premier League games against Villa.
Liverpool, however, are in a terrible run and are on course to lose five consecutive Premier League games, something they have not done since September 1953. Villa, on the other hand, are unbeaten in six Premier League games, the second longest run this season behind Bournemouth's eight. They have also won their last four, including a 2-1 win over Tottenham and a 1-0 win over Manchester City last weekend. Villa now have the chance to become the first team since Leicester in 2016 to beat Manchester City and Liverpool in consecutive games.
Liverpool vs Aston Villa squad information
Slot said Ryan Gravenberch could return from an ankle injury, but confirmed Alexander Isak and Curtis Jones are likely to miss out, as are Alisson Becker, Jeremie Frimpong and Giovanni Leoni. Young defender Amara Nallo is also suspended.
For Aston Villa, Emery cannot have Harvey Elliott, the loan signing from Liverpool, who will be sidelined against his parent club. They also lost Emiliano Buendia, Youri Tielemans and Andres Garcia through injury.
