LIVERPOOL v MIDDLESBROUGH - BETTING ZONE PREVIEW
Nothing sums up Liverpool's inconsistency than a look back at their last five games.
Of course, their last two matches have brough contrasting cup results - a 2-0 victory over supposedly one of Europe's best sides in Inter Milan, and a 2-1 home defeat to mid-table Championship outfit Barnsley.
Meanwhile in the league they've won one, drawn one and lost one, so who knows what will happen here?
The one thing we can say is bookies still like to keep the Reds onside - they are a best price of 4/9 in this match to beat a Boro team who have not lost since New Year's Day, a run that takes in eight matches.
That streak included a 1-1 draw against Liverpool in the reverse fixture so the value here could well be to lay Liverpool and back Boro not to lose.
Weight is added to the argument when you see Liverpool have won just five of their 12 home games in the league this term and they will also be missing defence lynchpin Jamie Carragher due to suspension in this one.
Given Rafa Benitez's selection policy, that's unlikely to be the only change to his line-up.
You can get both the draw and a Boro win on your side at 2/1 with bookies.
Verdict: Liverpool 1 Middlesbrough 1
