This is a significant game in the Premier Legaue which could shape the destiny of both the clubs. Liverpool are chasing their first Premier League title, while Cardiff City are aiming to keep their top-flight status alive. A draw won’t serve any side good either.

After Manchester City’s 1-0 win over Tottenham Hotspur, the Reds will be even under more pressure to win the game. For they are now second on the Premier Legaue table, one point off the summit. Considering the season is on the verge of running its course, more ground for City would effectively end the title ambitions for Jurgen Klopp and his men.

But the Reds have been in this kind of situation before, which demanded nothing other than a win. Liverpool will have to do it again, have to circumvent for the umpteenth time.

A win will take them to the very top of the Premier League table, having played a game more than Pep’s team. But this will also put pressure on the reigning champions. And who knows, Pep Guardiola’s team may finally buckle under the pressure.

On the form side, Klopp couldn’t have asked more from his troops. They are unbeaten in the Premier League since a 2-1 defeat at the home of the current champions. While the immediate forms show 8 wins out of 8 matches heading into this game.

The Champions League semifinal is coming as well, a glamorous tie against the mighty Barcelona. But ask any Liverpool fabs, the remaining league fixtures against Cardiff City, Huddersfield, Newcastle United and Wolves are equally important and as glamorous as the match against Lionel Messi’s team.

Cardiff manager Neil Warnock knows the enormity of the task he faces to keep his club in the top-flight.

As things stand in the league, the Bluebirds are 18th on the table, 3 points adrift of 17th placed Brighton & Hove Albion.

LIV vs CAR Dream11 FANTASY TEAM:

INDIA FANTASY PREDICTION:
Liverpool haven’t lost to Cardiff City for 60 years, with their last loss coming in a 4-0 loss in a Division Two match in December 1959. For the records, it was Bill Shankly’s first game in charge. Liverpool have come a long way since then.

We back Liverpool to stretch that record here.
