Liverpool Vs Huddersfield: The SportsRush brings you the head-to-head statistics between Liverpool and Huddersfield Town.
Liverpool dropped down to the second spot, but they could turn the pressure on to Manchester City when they play Huddersfield Town on Friday night at Anfield. The Reds have to procure all three points against the Terriers and rest of the games to hand themselves a chance to get near the cross line, even though they cannot shape up Manchester City’s results.
Keeping the Champions League Semifinals clash at Nou Camp in mind, Jurgen Klopp might rotate his squad and keep them fresh for another tournament. The Reds will have the likes of Xherdan Shaqiri, Daniel Sturridge, Divock Origi, James Milner, and Dejan Lovren on the bench. Even though all the five might not start the game, one or two might replace the starters on Friday.
On the other hand, Huddersfield Town are already relegated having lost their last seven games in the English top division. The quality is very less at stake and they might struggle against the pacy forwards who do not have a breather to the opponents. However, they could cause troubles via set pieces, with the likes of Steve Mounie and Laurent Depoitre have the finesse to win headers.
As these two sides go head-to-head, we shall look at statistics between these two sides.

Recent Form
After the draw against Everton in the Merseyside Derby, Liverpool have won all nine games on a trot in all competitions. The Reds have found their old mojo by breezing past opponents without the requirement of full effort. The front three have started to find their old rhythm back and will try to try to continue to form on Friday.
Huddersfield have lost last seven games in the Premier League and look unlikely to cause an upset at Anfield. It will be too much for the visitors who are struggling at both the end of the pitch. With nothing to play, they will play freely against the Reds.
