Having regained the winning thread at the weekend, beating West Ham by two goals to zero, the Reds will be back in front of a home crowd on Wednesday night. Knocking on Liverpool's door will the be the Black Cats of Sunderland, who continued to show that they're very much up for the top-tier scrap on Saturday, beating Bournemouth by three goals to two.
Sunday's win in East London should act as a platform from which to build for the hosts, but that was also the case when they beat Aston Villa, a win that was followed by back-to-back league defeats. The Reds go in search of what would be their first back-to-back league successes since September. Meanwhile, the visitors are looking to avoid defeat for the sixth time in seven league games.

Our Liverpool vs Sunderland Prediction
We know that the Black Cats are going to head to Anfield and look to shut up shop before anything else, so this could be a case of being patient and picking the lock for Liverpool, which is where Dominik Szoboszlai can play his part. The Hungarian may have registered just one EPL assist this season, but he's consistently looked like one of Arne Slot's most creative players.
Nobody Liverpool player has put more crosses into the penalty box, while Szoboszlai also ranks right at the top of Liverpool's list for both key passes and final-third passes.
Our Liverpool vs Sunderland Pick: Dominik Szoboszlai 1+ Assists.
