Predicted Liverpool XI: Watford (H)

Liverpool will aim to keep their incredible start to the season going when they face bottom club Watford at Anfield on Saturday lunch-time kick-off.

The day started with the announcement of Jurgen Klopp’s contract extension till 2024, which means that the atmosphere around the club is more than positive at this moment in time.

The manager would now want to get the three points on Saturday and keep the lead intact at the top of the table.

They are facing a Watford side, who will play their first game under new manager Nigel Pearson. Expect the new manager bounce in the game, and the Hornets to be more competitive than they have been so far this season.

In terms of Liverpool team news, Dejan Lovren is out for some time due to muscle injury. All long-term absentees Fabinho and Joel Matip are anyway ruled out till New Year.
