The thing about Liverpool this season- you just never know if/when they have finally turned the corner, and are now ready to start meeting the preseason expectations. Every time you think that rubicon has been crossed…they just slip right back to the malaise that we’ve seen them in all season long.
The good news is that they won the reverse fixture against Manchester City, so you have to like their chances on Saturday.
