Liverpool v Middlesbrough - My Preview


Both teams come into this weekend match on a winning start to the season.

Middlesbrough was impressive against Spurs at the Riverside. Gareth Southgate's side prove that they are more than capable to challenge for the top half rather than a relagation candidate this campaign. Boro will want to maintain a winning start. On the other hand, Liverpool would also want a strong start to close the gap between the Big 3.

However Boro will have their work cut out at Anfield as the Reds possess more quality than them. The return of Ryan Babel from the Olyimpic will certainly boost Liverpoo's attacking option. With Torres carrying on his goals scoring form and Keane wanting to proof his value, all sign point to a Liverpool victory. Nevertheless, Boro will have men behind the ball and make life diffcult for the home side.

My prediction : 2-0 to Liverpool.

My other bold prediction:

Blackburn v Hull 3-0
Stoke v Villa 1-2
Newcastle v Bolton 2-1
Spurs v Sunderland 4-2
WBA v Everton 1-1
Fulham v Arsenal 1-1
Wigan v Chelsea 1-3
Man City v W. Ham 2-1
Potrsmouth v Man Utd 1-1
