Liverpool v Accrington Predictions and Free Bet Tips
Liverpool v Accrington Match Preview
Liverpool will be eager to put their League Cup disappointment behind them when they turn their attention to the FA Cup on Saturday against Accrington Stanley at Anfield.
The Reds saw a 24-match unbeaten streak in all competitions come to a dramatic end against Tottenham in midweek in the first leg of their EFL Cup semi-final clash, which was in stark contrast to the 6-3 drubbing they handed out at the same ground a few weeks ago in the Premier League.
A few rungs below Liverpool in the English football pyramid, and you will find Accrington Stanley who are at the wrong end of the table in League Two.
Although they picked up back-to-back wins against Grimsby and Colchester United, Accrington Stanley sit in 19th spot, but a glamour tie against the Premier League leaders should fill them with excitement.
Regarding team news, Dominik Szoboszlai, who missed the defeat against Tottenham, could be in contention to start while Jarrell Quansah (illness) is doubtful.
The FA Cup has provided a plethora of magical moments down the years, but will we see a major upset this weekend on Merseyside? I have rummaged through the betting markets and handpicked some betting tips to support my Liverpool v Accrington predictions.
Normal service to resume for Liverpool
Arne Slot may have been seething over a couple of the refereeing decisions that went against his side against Tottenham, most notably the one where Lucas Bergvall escaped a second booking and went on to net the winner.
But this isn’t a time to dwell or reflect on what could have been. The FA Cup is a competition Liverpool have largely excelled in, and they are eight-time winners.
Their record is formidable in the third round, and the last time they fell at the first stage Premier League clubs enter was back in the 2018/19 campaign when they were unceremoniously dumped out by Wolves in a 2-1 loss.
Accrington Stanley, however, won’t be there to make up the numbers. Indeed, they have progressed from each of their last four FA Cup third-round ties.
This will represent their first official clash with Liverpool in 69 years, and on that day, Liverpool won 2-0.
Accrington Stanley have lost all three of their FA Cup games against Premier League sides by an aggregate of 7-1, and I can’t see Liverpool slipping up.
For my opening pick, I’m going with Liverpool to win & BTTS, and Betano has supplied a tempting price of 19/10.
Liverpool to put the squeeze on Accrington Stanley
A trip to a febrile Anfield can fill most teams with dread, and sometimes they will feel like they have lost before they have made their way down the tunnel.
Of course, Slot will want to respect the competition with the side he fields and he won’t take anything for granted as he seeks to deliver silverware in his debut season in charge.
One player that Liverpool will need to be wary of is Tyler Walton who has netted in both of Accrington Stanley’s FA Cup ties, and he is looking to become the first player for the club to score in each of the first three rounds of the competition.
It could be a long afternoon for Accrington Stanley, and judging by their results against Premier League clubs in the FA Cup, 3-1 is a popular scoreline.
I think Accrington Stanley could grab a late consolation, but to round off my tips, I’m leaning into Liverpool to win 3-1 and William Hill has obliged with an eye-catching 12/1.
