An interesting match-up is on the cards this weekend; Liverpool plays host to Aston Villa in the Premier League in a game that will see Steven Gerrard the Villa manager return to where his trade was nurtured. Going to the game Liverpool are second in the standings of 34 points, while Villa have managed 19 points so far. Liverpool are coming from yet another win, 2-1 over AC Milan in Italy and Divock Origi, the hero in their last league game, scored the winner here again. It was the Reds’ sixth straight win, and ninth time in 10 matches that they scored two or more goals. Shifting back to the league, they have four straight wins with three clean sheets in them and one man who will like this game is Mohamed Salah, not  only because of his recent form, which has ben great, but he has scored four times in the last three meetings with Villa.

Steven Gerrard has transformed Villa and after getting into the top half he will want to pull a fast one on his former team. He has won three of his four matches in charge and his only loss so far has been against league leaders Manchester City. In the last game, Gerrard beat his former manager and here he will be targeting the man who gave him his first coaching experience. It will definitely be an emotional game for Gerrard but it is the three points that will matter most. His team has scored two in three of the last four matches, and most notably has scored in each of the games he has been in charge. Each of their last three matches has ended in over 2.5 goals but away from home they have just a win in four league matches.
