Liverpool vs Huddersfield predicted line-ups: What time, what channel, prediction, team news, h2h, odds and more

A look ahead to the Premier League fixture at Anfield

An already-relegated Huddersfield travel to Anfield to face Liverpool in the Premier League on Friday night.

Liverpool fans were cheering on Manchester United against Man City on Wednesday, but to no avail as their title rivals secured a significant three points.

Jurgen Klopp’s side won’t buckle just yet though, and are likely to play a full-strength side with five days until their Champions League semi-final first leg against Barcelona.

Huddersfield have lost their last seven games, and are guaranteed to finish bottom of the table.

The reverse fixture in October saw a solitary Mohamed Salah goal separate the sides in a 1-0 victory at the John Smith’s Stadium.

Predicted line-ups

Liverpool: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Van Dijk, Robertson, Wijnaldum, Henderson, Keita, Mane, Salah, Firmino

Huddersfield: Lossl, Smith, Schindler, Kongolo, Durm, Kachunga, Bacuna, Pritchard, Lowe, Mooy, Grant

What time does it start?

Liverpool vs Huddersfield kicks off at 8:00pm (BST) on Friday 26th April.

Prediction… Liverpool 4-0 Huddersfield

Liverpool will win tonight, and comfortably. Huddersfield have already been relegated, have lost their last seven games and haven’t won a point away from home since January 12.

The only question mark around the fixture is whether Jurgen Klopp opts to rest any players ahead of the Reds’ Champions League semi-final clash on Wednesday, especially given the title run-in is in Man City’s hands. Roberto Firmino was a substitute away at Porto last week - will Sadio Mane and Mo Salah also be rested today?

But, as has been the case all season, expect Klopp to name a full-strength side, and that fact alone should be enough for a convincing Liverpool victory. 4-0 - Liverpool back on top of the table by two points.
