Soccer predictions for today

Watford hosts Liverpool in a game from the first round of the English Premier League at the Vicarage Road Stadium. Let us give you our soccer predictions for it.

The home team is starting the season with a brand new manager, after Marco Silva replaced the sacked Walter Mazzarri. Although the Italian tactician kept Watford in the Premier League last season, the club’s board took a decision to replace him with another manager. Let’s see how Watford will perform with someone new at helm.

As for Liverpool, Jurgen Klopp is about to start his second full season with the club. Last season he managed to qualify the team for the Champions League, but the club’s ambitions are higher than this. The main goal is winning the Premier League for a first time since many, many years. But are Liverpool able to do it? One thing is for sure - the competition is going to be really great this season. Just like the last one.

During the summer Liverpool improved their offensive line by signing the Egyptian winger Mohammed Salah from Roma. This will allow Liverpool to be even faster in attack, which is important for Klopp’s philosophy.

The big question at Liverpool right now is about Phillipe Coutinho’s future. The Brazilian international is wanted by Barcelona, but so far Liverpool are successful in their desire to keep him at the Anfield. But for how long they can continue refusing Barca’s offers for the player? One thing is for sure - for Liverpool is very important to keep Coutinho in the squad. But it’s not easy to convince a player to stay, while he’s wanted by a club like Barcelona.

Liverpool want to win the title, that’s a thing we know. But they can’t do it, if they don’t win games like this one. That’s why everyone at Liverpool expects a win over Watford. Will we see one? Share with us your soccer predictions for this clash.
