THE PREDICTION
Due to a mixture of international, call-ups, injuries and positive Covid-19 cases, the expectation is that a very young and inexperienced Liverpool team will take to the field against League One side Shrewsbury. However, this wouldn’t be the first time that a Liverpool youth team has beaten Shrewsbury in the FA Cup and the Reds will still start as clear favourites at Anfield. Steve Cotterill’s men however, may just sense an opportunity for a historic upset and are more than capable of creating chances for themselves. With the nature of Liverpool’s starting line-up unknown, the shrewd play here may be to back over 2.5 goals over 90 minutes, with the Premier League giants certain to create plenty of goalscoring opportunities at home and Shrewsbury a potential threat on the counter attack.
