Rafa’s rotation to pay dividends!!!!!
April 15, 2008
This Saturday sees Fulham host Liverpool. Fulham are presently in 19th place and fighting for their very survival. Liverpool are in 4th and in the Semi Finals of the Champions League where they play Chelsea on Tuesday.
Although Rafa is likely to rest key players such as Gerrard and Torres there should be enough firepower to steer Liverpool to victory. Fulham have won only 2 out of their last 9 games, one of which came in their last game at Reading. Liverpool on the other hand have won 10 out of the last 13 games in all competitions, the only blemish’s being 2 draws against Arsenal (one away in the Champions League) and a 3-0 thrashing at Old Trafford.
Rafa will have one eye firmly on Tuesday nights Champions League match. However Liverpool still need to win this game because they are only 5 points a head of Everton and they could catch Arsenal for 3rd place. With Torres and Gerrard likely to be rested Crouch, Benayoun, Lucas and Damien Plessis are likely to feature. Plessis has played only one game for Liverpool but impressed on his debut and he could be a player for the future. If Fulham are to win Bullard and McBride will have to be at their inspirational best.
I predict a comfortable win for the Reds who always play better in the second half of the season. They look a Steel at Even money with Coral and I recommend 20 points on them to win. Open an account with Coral today and receive a free £10 bet.
