Liverpool is on an unbeaten streak of 8 matches, including two draws and six victories during this period. Liverpool even managed to win the title, triumphing over Chelsea in the League Cup. After the dominant win against Sparta in the first leg of the UEFA Europa League Round of 16, Liverpool played a match against their direct competitor, Manchester City, at home, which ultimately ended in a 1-1 draw. This draw played into the hands of Arsenal, who, after defeating Brentford, climbed to the top, surpassing both Liverpool and Manchester City. Liverpool’s home statistics are the best in the division, with +11 wins, 3 draws, 0 losses, and a goal difference of 38:12. In the upcoming game, Liverpool will be without Alexander-Arnold, Alisson, Fabinho, Gravenberch, Jones, Diogo Jota, Matip, and Thiago. Konate’s participation in the game is questionable.
On Thursday, Sparta will be without Windheim and Pesek, with Pavelka’s participation in the game still uncertain. After the defeat to Liverpool, Sparta also lost to Victoria Plzen away with a score of 0-4. However, this unpleasant defeat did not affect Sparta’s position as the leader in the Czech Republic’s league. The gap from the nearest pursuer, Slavia, has decreased to just one point. Sparta’s away statistics in the Czech league are second, with +8 wins, 2 draws, 2 losses, and a goal difference of 23:13. More accurate soccer predictions can be obtained from the link provided.
