Home

Liverpool

Liverpool are among the strongest teams in the league and should control the ball in front of their own fans at Anfield, leaving Coventry to defend for long spells.

Away, promoted this season

Coventry City

Still adjusting to the top flight, Coventry will probably defend in numbers on the road at Anfield and pick their moments to break.
