Reason for Stoke v Liverpool Bets
With just seven Premier League matches remaining, wins are what count at this stage of the season. That’s especially the case for Liverpool, as they chase a hotly-contested top-four spot. Stoke meanwhile are looking to cement their place in the top-half of the table.
The Potters have been rather inconsistent of late, fighting for an away draw with Manchester City before being swept aside by Leicester City. They’ve been far superior at home than on the road, however, losing just one of their last nine matches at the Britannia. Their sole home loss in 2017 came at the hands of league-leaders Chelsea in their most recent home match. It took a late Gary Cahill goal to separate the teams in what was a hard-fought Stoke performance.
The Reds will therefore have to be up for a fight if they’re to go home with the points. They’ve certainly looked motivated of late, with impressive victories over Everton and Arsenal. With the top-four battle one of the tightest in recent years, they need to keep picking up the points.
Whilst Stoke are admittedly a difficult side to break down at home, they often struggle against teams that move the ball around quickly like Liverpool. They were torn apart by both Tottenham and Manchester City at home, both who play a more similar style of football to the Reds than say Chelsea or Manchester United. If Jurgen Klopp’s side can attack with pace, rather than let the Stoke defence settle, then an away win should be on the cards. Back it at 7/10 with Bet365
The last six Premier League head-to-heads have produced 27 goals – that’s an average 4.5 goals a game. Back a Liverpool win and over 2.5 goals at 13/8 with William Hill.
