May come down to who has the most AFCON/post crammed Christmas schedule injury absentees. Liverpool thankfully won’t have Salah or Mane available for either leg. But we’re also without Auba, Pepe and Partey.
Auba is a not so good lucky packet, right now, Pepe, not much better, but is showing sign of form. Partey is a bit more of an issue, less of a lucky packet than the other two.
A toss up.
Covid Murphy, must leave us alone, and **** the other teams for a change. And he must leave our little bit of "luck" alone, tho it be far from "blind" luck , but we need every little bit we can get.
The less said about the Ref's the better me thinks, to say nothing of VAR.
