Jurgen Klopp's side racked up four midweek goals and our tipster expects the visit of the Bluebirds to yield plenty more action in the final third
Liverpool will be aiming to maintain the pressure on Premier League leaders Manchester City when Cardiff City visit Anfield on Saturday.Jurgen Klopp's men are joint top at the top of the table with 23 points from the opening nine fixtures, and secured a big 4-0 win over Red Star Belgrade in Wednesday's Champions League clash.
Sadio Mane made a goal-scoring return to the team against Red Star, although Jordan Henderson and Naby Keita remain injury doubts.Joe Ralls is suspended for the guests, while Lee Peltier and Nathaniel Mendez-Laing are injured and Danny Ward will face a late fitness test.
The Reds were also genuine title contenders the last time these sides met in the top flight, with Brendan Rodgers' free-scoring side running out 3-1 and 6-3 winners.That season actually continued a long-standing trend in matches between this pair, with their last 10 encounters producing 45 goals in total.Another high-scoring clash looks likely on Saturday considering Neil Warnock's team have conceded 12 times in just three matches against Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester City this campaign.
Having looked more at their prolific best against Red Star in midweek, Liverpool are well worth backing at 10/11 (1.91) to follow suit and ensure over 3.5 goals for Cardiff's sixth fixture in eight.
