Team news
Middlesbrough
Alvaro Negredo could pass a late fitness test and be available for this match after missing last weekend’s loss to Southampton. Gaston Ramirez is out due to injury, but George Friend could return.
Liverpool
Emre Can could miss this match after picking up a knock in training, and the same case applies to Dejan Lovren who has a hamstring injury. Lori Karius is expected to start between the sticks, while Daniel Sturridge is still doubtful.
Match forecast
Liverpool are one of the highest-scoring sides this season in the Premier League with 37 goals, while Boro are the lowest scoring side (13 goals). Another thing to consider is the fact that the hosts have only lost by more than a one-goal margin once this season so far. That means it would be quite difficult for the Reds to find the back of the net away from home, but they should feel quite safe in their own half.
WATCH: Klopp claims he is not worried about the gap
This is expected to be a low-scoring game as the hosts are well-known for scoring less goals and keeping their defense tight. But the visitors are badly in need of a win in order to keep up with the title race especially at a time when Arsenal have just gone down 2-1 to Everton at the Goodison Park. A win for Klopp’s men could see them leapfrog the gunners and that is exactly what they are expected to do.
