Norwich v Liverpool: match preview
by Guardian StaffNorwich are bottom and seven points from safety with the joint leakiest defence in the top flight so this may not be the ideal time for them to face Liverpool – Jürgen Klopp’s side have scored 28 goals against Norwich in their past seven Premier League encounters, including a 4-1 victory at Anfield on the opening day of the season. Daniel Farke will need Teemu Pukki to rediscover some form if the home side are to inflict Liverpool’s first league defeat since January 2019 as the Finnish striker has scored only twice in his past seven appearances after starting the season with five goals in three games. Liverpool, already overwhelming favourites to take all three points, should be boosted by the return from injury of Sadio Mané and James Milner. Rich Flower
