Hosts Liverpool have been in imperious form this season and have made an unbeaten run in the Champions League winning all their six group games. They have been sitting at top of both the Premier League and Champions League tables and would aim to make the most of it this weekend

The arrival of Emile Smith Rowe this summer has brought a touch of creativity in the middle of the park. The Cottagers are expected to hold their ground and a win against the hosts would see them surge up the table.
