Eleven games unbeaten in all competitions, 18 games unbeaten at Anfield and looking for their fourth win in a row, Jurgen Klopp‘s Liverpool take on an impressive Watford outfit at home.
Navigating the absence of Dejan Lovren, Klopp named Lucas Leiva in defence, while James Milner took Alberto Moreno‘s place at left-back and Sadio Mane,Philippe Coutinho and Roberto Firmino kept their positions in attack.
Walter Mazzarri’s Hornets headed into the clash sitting in seventh place, presenting a considerable challenge for the Reds, but they cruised by in style.
