Liverpool FC at Sheffield United FC 2/28/21 - Premier League Picks & Predictions

Liverpool lost in the city derby against Everton and are now sitting outside the top-five spots of the Premier League. They will have a seemingly easy job on Sunday, when they will be hosted by bottom-feeders Sheffield United. Sheffield United look unable to avoid the relegation this season and this is a vey tough match for them.

Sheffield United (3-20-2) are coming off a tough loss that pretty much destroyed their chances to avoid the relegation. They lost by 0-1 on the road against Fulham, another team that is fighting to avoid the relegation. Sheffield United have now lost 4 of their last 5 EPL matches and are sitting dead last in the league table with 11 points, 14 points below the red line. They have been equally bad at home so far (2-9-1), scoring 9 and conceding 18 goals.

Liverpool (11-7-7) met another loss in the EPL, their 4th in a row, when they fell by 2-0 at home against Everton last week. The only silver lining is their away win in the round of 16 of the Champions League against RB Leipzig, but other than that their season looks bad so far. They are sitting at the 6th spot of the Premier League with 40 points, 5 points behind the top-four spots that lead to the Champions League next season. They have a mediocre 4-3-5 record on the road, winning just 2 of their last 5 (2-2-1).
