Preston North End form and stats

Last season, Preston's Carabao Cup journey ended in the 3rd round.

3-3-1 (win-draw-lost) are the Championship numbers at home for Preston North End so far this season. This match is a Carabao Cup match, and the hometeam has the total statistics 3 wins, 0 draws and 0 losses in this competition.

The fans are hoping that Preston North End will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-2 away loss in the Championship game against Blackpool. Jordan Storey, defender, was given a rating of 7.42/10 in that game, top of the team. Storey hit one key pass and won 12 of 16 duels.

Before that game, the 2-1 home victory against Coventry City.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Preston as they have a new game in only three days, a Championship match thankfully also at home. Luton Town are visiting.

Preston are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 9 goals in 7 games. On the other hand, Preston have conceded 8 goals.

Liverpool form and stats

Liverpool's mission in Carabao Cup last season failed in the 8th finals.

As the visiting team in Premier League matches, Liverpool have produced an overall stat of 4-1-0 so far. In general it has been a productive period now for Liverpool as they haven't lost any of their last 19 games.

Liverpool have succeeded in guarding their own goal lately, led by their goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher. It's been 189 minutes since they last conceded in Premier League.

Liverpool play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 5-0 victory visiting Manchester United. As you can tell from the results above, Liverpool was very dominant against Manchester United, winning the match with a scoreline that even the finest fortune teller couldn't predict. 5-0 (!) with Naby Keïta, Mohamed Salah (3) and Diogo Jota providing the goals. Mohamed Salah certainly enjoyed Liverpool's last game versus Manchester United, appearing multiple times in the match report with three goals and the 5-0 victory. Attacker Mohamed Salah got a player rating of 9.8 in the game. "Man of the match" Salah scored three goals, served one assist, hit two key passes and had 44 successful passes (of 47 total).

Ahead of that match was the victory versus Atlético Madrid at their stadium, the result 3-2.

After this away game Liverpool return home for a Premier League game against Brighton & Hove Albion. That game is only three sleeps after this.

The Liverpool manager J. Klopp has seen his team go crazy on the road this season, having scored 19 goals in 5 league matches away. It's not easy to score on Liverpool as they have only conceded 3 goals from these away games.
