Liverpool vs LASK Linz Predictions

• Both teams have scored in three of Liverpool’s four Europa League games this season.
• Liverpool have won all nine competitive home games this term.
• LASK have scored in three of their four Europa League group games this season.

Reds look to bounce back

Liverpool suffered a surprise defeat in Toulouse in gameweek three of the Europa League group stages but they will hope to bounce back with a win on Thursday, potentially locking up the top spot in Group E in the process.

The Reds followed that loss with a comfortable victory over Brentford before taking a point from the Etihad either side of the international break and they should be able to justify their favouritism here, although a clean sheet may be beyond them.

Jurgen Klopp’s side have kept just one clean sheet in the Europa League this season and have conceded in four of their last five in all competitions, while the Austrian visitors have found the net in three of their four group-stage games.

Liverpool to win high-scoring affair at Anfield

The reverse fixture in Linz in September ended in a 3-1 win for Liverpool and a similar result could be on the cards, making Liverpool to win and both teams to score a good-value option.

That 3-1 win for Liverpool has been followed by two more 3-1 triumphs, making it five 3-1 wins this season. They have scored exactly three goals in eight of their 18 matches this season and a repeat of that scoreline looks likely.
