Liverpool vs Derby – Liverpool will play Derby County in the third round of the competition as they prepare to begin their Carabao Cup title defense. In the 2021–22 championship game, Jurgen Klopp’s team defeated Chelsea on penalties to win the trophy for the seventh time.
With an amazing 2-1 victory over Tottenham, the home team halted their two-game losing streak in the Premier League. Additionally, this is their first road victory of the year. For this forthcoming game, Jurgen Klopp is likely to make significant alterations to the starting lineup.
In the second round of this competition back in August, the visitors overcame West Brom by a score of 1-0. Paul Warne’s team won that game with a lone goal from Louie Sibley. They are now experiencing a modest decline in form in their home league.
Louie Sibley scored the equaliser against Morecambe in their most recent league match. The fact that Paul Warne’s team will face the defending champions of this game means that we may anticipate seeing his strongest starting lineup.
Liverpool’s team lacks depth this season, and the main cause of this is the absence of so many important players due to injury. Additionally, against Torquay United in the FA Cup, William Osula most recently scored a hat trick for Paul Warne’s team.
Liverpool vs Derby – Betting Analysis
Both of these teams last faced off at Anfield more than fifteen years ago, and Derby’s most recent victory at Anfield occurred in 1998. Six years ago, the host defeated Derby in this competition by a score of 3-0. In this game, Jurgen Klopp will probably give several youth players some playing time.
Paul Warne’s biggest concern is that Derby’s away performance is looking shaky. In their last three away games across all competitions, they have gone winless. They will therefore have a challenging journey to Anfield.
We anticipate Liverpool to triumph by a score of 2-0; the odds are 7.00. At Anfield, the host has a strong history versus Derby. They are also the reigning champs.
Darwin Nunez to score anytime, at 1.90 odd, is our second prediction for this game. We can anticipate Darwin Nunez scoring in Luis Diaz’s absence. He’ll probably get a spot in Jurgen Klopp’s starting eleven.
