Liverpool take on the visitors Aston Villa in the round 37 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Saturday, May 20th at Anfield (Liverpool).
Liverpool continue to keep their fans on their toes, maintaining hope for at least some kind of happy ending. For a long time after the summer Super Cup, there were no significant achievements, except for a few bright victories, including a 7-0 triumph over their historical rivals, Manchester United. But now there is a chance to surpass either the "Red Devils" or Newcastle. Both clubs have been faltering, gradually reducing the distance between them and the Merseyside team. The only issue is that there are very few matches left, and Jurgen Klopp's team might simply run out of time. However, it must be acknowledged that Liverpool has performed more than admirably in April and May. They seemed inspired by their comeback to draw against Arsenal, followed by seven consecutive victories, including a thrilling 4-3 win over Tottenham. And on Monday, they convincingly defeated Leicester 3-0.

Like last season, Aston Villa changed their manager this season as well. Overall, Steven Gerrard hasn't failed, improving the team's performance after Dean Smith's departure. However, he hasn't been able to offer anything coherent to his players and, most importantly, to the employers who wanted to see their creation among European contenders rather than mid-table teams. This is why Unai Emery was called to the West Midlands. It is likely that initially they considered Emery's arrival as a long-term prospect and didn't expect much from him, given that he took charge in November. But the manager began showing his level immediately upon returning to England. As a result, Aston Villa was already in the European places by mid-spring. However, they suffered two consecutive defeats, not only to Manchester United but also to a solid Wolverhampton side, who were not particularly motivated. But last Saturday, they managed to secure an important 2-1 victory over Tottenham. As a result, there are still chances to surpass crisis-stricken Tottenham in the race for the 7th place in 2023.
The last time Aston Villa won was in 2020. Since then, Liverpool has won five consecutive matches, including a 3-1 victory in Birmingham. Bookmakers are confident in another victory for Liverpool. However, Aston Villa also appears quite competitive. It is recommended to bet on the "total goals over 3.0" being recorded in this match.
Prediction for the match: Over 3.0 scored goals.
