Liverpool host surprise package Hull City in their final match over the "honeymoon" period. After this match, the Reds will go head to head against Arsenal away from home.
During this "honeymoon" period, Liverpool disappoint many by drawing blank against lesser teams like Fulham and West Ham at home but register away win to Blackburn and Bolton. The record for those matches read P5 W3 D2 L0. If Liverpool were to turn the 2 draws to wins, they will be riding at the top by 5 points instead of a slender 1 point lead.
Many lesser known teams seem to have found a way to frustrate Liverpool at Anfield. However Hull City will not adopt a defensive formation as evident in their away matches against Arsenal and Man Utd where they scored and conceded 5 goals. Hull City's offensive play will suit Liverpool.
Having said that, without Torres, Liverpool may again be left frustrated by creating chances but not able to score.
With 2 victories away to Blackburn and PSV, this match is a MUST win for the Reds if they are to maintain their lead at the top knowing that Chelsea will beat West Ham.
