Liverpool form and stats

Last season, Liverpool's FA Cup journey ended in the 3rd round.

This stadium, Anfield, has been a fortress for Liverpool in the Premier League so far this season with the win-draw-loss statistic 13-0-0. Liverpool has a nice streak going on as they have played 42 consecutive games without losing (regardless of home/away). They are keen to extend their tally, a streak that began after the Manchester City defeat 396 days ago. Liverpool has won so many consecutive home games (20 in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here at Anfield. We remember; it was Leicester City.

The Liverpool goalkeeper Adrian San Miguel del Castillo is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 219 minutes without conceding a goal in the Premier League.

A nice win for Liverpool last time playing, versus Southampton. That was also a home game and the match ended 4-0 with Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Jordan Henderson and Mohamed Salah (2) scoring for the victors. A strong away win before that one, visiting West Ham United and winning 2-0.

As indicated by the result mentioned above, Liverpool played a great game against Southampton and beat them comfortably. Expectations are high for this one.

Liverpool are an "over 2,5 goals" team alone here at Anfield in their league games, having scored an impressive 35 goals in 13 matches. Liverpool are not conceding a lot of goals here at Anfield in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 9 from 13 matches.

Shrewsbury Town form and stats

Shrewsbury Town's mission in FA Cup last season failed in the 4th round replays.

Shrewsbury Town have only collected 15 points from their away games in the League One, after 3-6-6 (15 played). Total FA Cup statistics for Shrewsbury Town: 3 wins, 3 draws and 0 losses. Shrewsbury Town has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

Shrewsbury Town have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 189 minutes ago. J. Cummings was the goal scorer.

Two away games in a row for Shrewsbury Town, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 0-1 versus Rochdale in the League One. Prior to that match, the Shrewsbury Town manager S. Ricketts faced defeat when travelling to Gillingham and losing 0-2.

We have checked recent matches where Shrewsbury Town have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those nine games were Wone-Dfive-Lthree.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Milton Keynes Dons in just four days.

The attacking power of Shrewsbury Town when travelling is not overwhelming with 9 goals scored from 15 league matches away. As opposed to that, Shrewsbury Town have seen the ball go into their own net 16 times on the road.
