Liverpool get a fresh start on Sunday when they travel to Kenilworth Road, the famous home of Premier League newcomers Luton Town.Like the Reds, the Bedfordshire club’s stadium is not the same size as Anfield, but that has presented problems going into the new season.
With promotion in need of improvement, the pitch was deemed fit for use at a higher level a game later than expected.Jurgen Klopp and his squad were always set to arrive at the start of November and the manager said it was an exciting prospect as he breaks new ground in his career. So Liverpool will be hoping to put on some fireworks on November 5 and bring all three points to Anfield.
They will play a decisive role in the most competitive Premier League campaign to date after 10 games. The manager is also looking forward to a tough test from his future opponents and while you can never predict the outcome, the ex-footballers-turned-professionals are predicting nothing but success for the Reds. Former Blackburn Rovers and Leicester City midfielder Robbie Savage believes Mohamed Salah will repeat Steven Gerrard’s feat – a hat-trick – in his last game against Luton in 2008.Referring to the match, Savage told Football365: “Will there be a hat-trick in this game? Mo Salah can do it. I think Liverpool will go to Luton and win.
“When the game was announced, Rob Edwards thought it was a game where every point would be a bonus. I think it’s going to be a tough game and I think they’re going to play a bit, but I think Liverpool will dominate the game at the end . “I’m preparing for a 4-0 win for Liverpool and a hat-trick for Mo Salah,” he said.Chris Sutton also believes Luton can’t win at home.
It started with Statman Dave telling me this. I’m not sure because I remember playing Tottenham at Kenilworth Road at the beginning of October. Spurs could have been 4-0 up after 15 minutes. “To be fair to the Hats, they are doing as well as any promoted team in the top tier, but I can’t see them struggling with Liverpool’s incredible attacking talent.”
