limpid Posted March 19, 2009 Administrator Share Posted March 19, 2009 If you are considering a bet on Sunday's game our betting partner has prepared the following match stats to help you make informed judgments before you bet. [*:9f3a895891]Villa haven't beaten Liverpool in the league since September 2001 when Steven Gerrard scored and was sent off. [*:9f3a895891]Liverpool are unbeaten in the league at home and only Chelsea have a better away record than Villa in the Premiership this season. [*:9f3a895891]Villa have scored as many goals away as Liverpool have scored at home. [*:9f3a895891]Villa have won 1 and Liverpool have lost 1 of their last 5 league games. [*:9f3a895891]Villa have won 1 of their last 10 league games against top 4 sides whereas Liverpool have lost 1 of their last 10 league games against sides from the top 6. [*:9f3a895891]Liverpool have failed to score in 4 of their last 20 league games - away to Boro, West Ham, Stoke and at home to Fulham. Fernando Torres failed to start in 3 of those 4 games. [*:9f3a895891]Liverpool have lost only 11% of their games when Fernando Torres has played 60 minutes or more since his arrival from Athletico Madrid. [*:9f3a895891]12 of Liverpool's last 20 league games and 11 of Villas have involved less than 3 goals. [*:9f3a895891]Only 3 sides in the Premiership have kept more clean sheets than Liverpool and Villa. [*:9f3a895891]Had you put £1 on Villa to win each of their last 20 league games you'd be £5.34 up - a greater return than any Premiership side. Summary Villa face a huge challenge to get anything from their televised clash with Liverpool on Sunday. Liverpool's 8-1 aggregate thrashing of Real Madrid and Man Utd in their last 2 games and Rafa's 5 year contract extension make for a testing afternoon at Anfield for lacklustre Villa. The match stats suggest a narrow Liverpool victory but our advice is to back under 2.5 goals which is a best priced 4-5 with Paddy Power - open an account with Paddy Power, place a £10 bet and they’ll give you a free £20 bet!
