Unai Emery’s team suffered a major setback during the week. They faced Olympiacus Piraeus away from home in the Europa League semi-final and were no match for the Greeks throughout the encounter. They did not manage to play their usual game and Piraeus did it very cleverly. The 2-0 defeat and the resulting elimination from the Europa Conference League was therefore thoroughly deserved for Aston Villa in this form.
The Reds were able to cope well with their difficult task on the final matchday. They had to play Spurs from London at home and played a very good game of soccer. They made the most of their chances this time and led 2-0 at the break. They continued to play lively after the break and managed to lead 4-0 by the 60th minute. Liverpool then acted a little more passively and conceded two more goals. However, this was not to change the victory

Aston Villa Form & Balance Check
For the team from Birmingham, the season is over at the moment. They were knocked out of the Europa Conference League during the week and are also pretty much alone in the league. There is no way up and they are well clear of the chasing pack at the bottom. They have won two and drawn two of their last five games, with one defeat against Brighton last weekend. This leaves them in fourth place, which means they will play in the Champions League next season
Not a good omen
Aston Villa have won just one of their last twelve Premier League meetings with Liverpool, drawing one and losing the other. What’s more, no game in Premier League history has been won more often by the away team than this fixture. Liverpool have won 22 of the 57 meetings at Villa Park
Aston Villa facts & analysis
- One win from the last twelve games against Liverpool
- Fourth place in the table
- Last game lost
Liverpool Form & Balance Check
Liverpool have denied themselves the chance of another league title with their own results. They have only won two and drawn two of their last five games. They were even beaten by Crystal Palace. That leaves them five points behind the leaders in the table, so if Arsenal or City win their games at the weekend, the championship would be history
Dangerous offense
A particular factor in the Reds’ game is Mohamed Salah. The Egyptian is currently in outstanding form again and will try everything to be of help again in this game. He has already scored one goal and provided one assist in four games, the second-best tally for an attacker in the league. Together with Luiz Diaz and Darwin Núñez, the three-man attack will once again be highly dangerous.
Liverpool facts & analysis
- Third place in the table
- Last game won
- Only lost three times away from home
Unai Emery is likely to revert to the 4-2-3-1 in this game. Compared to the game during the week, where they were unsuccessful with a 5-4-1, Rogers will move back to the ten position. Otherwise, there could be numerous rotations depending on how fit the players feel.
Depending on the situation, whether Liverpool still have a chance of winning the championship at the time of the game, Jürgen Klopp will line up. Otherwise, there will probably be no changes to his 4-2-3-1. Nunez is an option up front and Gravenberch could also be deployed in the center once again
