Liverpool are flying high in the Premier League this season and will hope to continue their dominance in the FA Cup this weekend, as they host Accrington Stanley.
The Reds have lost just once so far and are unbeaten away from home. Mohamed Salah continues to carry the weight of expectation in attack but whether or not he is needed against the EFL outfit this weekend remains to be seen. We expect Arne Slot to heavily rotate his starting XI at Anfield.
As for Stanley, John Doolan's side are 19th in League Two and are only five points above the relegation places. Despite having won back-to-back games for the first time in the league since October recently, Accrington will have their work cut out against England's best-performing side so far this term.
But with cup magic always throwing up a thrill or two, who knows what could happen on Merseyside on Saturday afternoon?
