Huddersfield Town take on the visitors Liverpool at the Kirklees Stadium in the 9th tour of the Premier League. The match will be played in the eponymous town Huddersfield on Saturday, October 20th.
Hudderfield Town have arguably been the worst team so far this Premier League season. They are one place above Newcastle United in the table who are nineteenth at the moment. Despite of such a small handicap between these teams the Terriers have been looking way worse than the team and Rafael Benitez. For example, Newcastle United gave a fair fight to Manchester United last tour, they were winning with a 2-0 score in the course of that game but lost in the end. The team of David Wagner on the other hand has not shown such desperate performances yet this season. It is hard to even tell what their playing style exactly is. It has been surprising to see them draw three matches out of eight they have already had in the 2018/2019 Premier League season. Furthermore, the Terries have had four league games in front of their home crowd and have scored zero goals in them. This makes their chance of winning their upcoming fixture against Liverpool even lower. Also, there are five injured players in the squad of Huddersfield Town at the moment. The most crucial injuries in the team of David Wagner happened to the key defender Terence Kongolo and to the key midfielder Aaron Mooy. The chance of the Terries getting a positive result on Saturday is close to zero realistically. In their last three matches Huddersfield Town drew against Burnley with a 1-1 score, lost to Tottenham Hotspur with a 0-2 score and to Leicester City with a 1-3 score.

Liverpool have been lucky to have the pause in the league due to the international fixtures recently. That is because they had been on a four match streak without victories before that. First, the Reds were knocked out of the Carabao Cup. Second, they drew two Premier League fixtures in a row. Finally, the team of Jurgen Klopp lost their UEFA Champions League group stage fixture to Napoli. Now they should feel fresh and motivated after the pause due to the international fixtures. Furthermore, their upcoming opponents are Huddersfield Town who are of the weakest teams in the league right now. The Terriers have been looking really bad in the defense lately. This means that the leader of the Reds Mohamed Salah will crush the defensive line of Huddersfield Town and will try to score in the upcoming match. Not only Salah but the whole offensive line of Liverpool should show their strength and confidence on Saturday. The team of Jurgen Klopp scored only two goals in their last four games. That weak result will motivate them to score a lot against the Terriers. In their last three matches Liverpool drew against Manchester City with a 0-0 score, lost to Napoli with a 0-1 score in their Champions League group stage fixture and drew against Chelsea with a 1-1 score. The Reds have also had a 1/16-finals fixture of the Carabao Cup recently where they have lost to Chelsea with a 1-2 score.
Liverpool are likely to win confidently in the upcoming fixture. The Reds are motivated to end their failing streak, they should feel fresh on Saturday. Huddersfield Town are exactly the type of opponent Liverpool wants to toy with. The team of Jurgen Klopp should get the victory on Saturday.
Prediction for the match: Liverpool to win with -1.0 handicap.
