Aston Villa vs Liverpool
Well - this is essentially a cup final...

The league title cannot be decided today but a win for either side virtually sews it up for them Certainly a win for us would put us almost there due to GD and, in that respect, the draw is on our side as well.
The sides have met 3 times already with Liverpool winning 2-1 at home in the League and us winning 1-0 at home and then drawing 1-1 away in the cup. So honours completely even.
What is critical is the promotion of Souttar and suspension of Lewis leave us short in defence. Hopefully that won't be a game changer as it might be. We will have to be careful with our tactics for this one. Will the season change on such small margins?
