Liverpool evaded the loss against West Ham with two late goals but showed that they are susceptible to upsets. They will now have another sneaky outing on Saturday when they will be hosted by Watford. Watford have not been very good lately and logic dictates that they will have another tough match.

Liverpool (26-0-1) almost suffered an upset in their home match against West Ham but they scored two late goals to eventually win that match by 2-3. Prior to that they lost by 0-1 on the road against Atletico Madrid in the Champions League but they have been dominant inside English borders. They are leading the PL by a whopping 22 points, also featuring the best defense with just 17 conceded. Liverpool have been equally dominant on the road (12-0-1), conceding just six goals.

Watford (5-13-9) met a really bad loss on the road against Manchester United, where they lost by 0-3. They did a great run in January but Watford are now without a win in their last six matches in all competitions. They are sitting at the penultimate spot of the league table with 24 points, just one below the red line. Watford have been slightly better at home (3-5-5), losing just one of their last seven matches.

Liverpool beat Watford by a slim 0-2 at home earlier in the season and also won both matches last season, all with clean sheets. They have also been really strong in this venue over the years (5-1-1) and should have an easy job. But I will go with the Under 3 Goals here, as Liverpool have been somewhat quiet lately.
