After a tough week for Liverpool, with their EFL cup semi final being cancelled due to unavailability of players due to AFCON and Covid, Liverpool face Shrewsbury at home on Sunday afternoon in the FA Cup third round. With Liverpool having only 5-6 first team players available and Shrewsbury in good form we expect a close match.
Our betting predictions for Liverpool vs Shrewsbury match are:
Liverpool vs Shrewsbury Betting Tips
Safe Bets
Liverpool have scored in nine of their last ten games and while Shrewsbury have scored in eight of their last ten games. With Liverpool missing some key players in defence, betting on both teams to score at odds of 1.90 (bet365) is a safe bet.
With Salah and Mane unavailable and Firmino not 100% fit, Jota will be the key man for Liverpool and even if he comes on as a substitute betting on him to score at odds of 1.72 (betway) is a good bet.
With Liverpool missing key attackers due to AFCON and Shrewsbury averaging only one goal scored per game this season, we expect a less attacking match and betting on under 4.5 goals and under 11.5 corners being conceded at odds of 2.00 (betway) is one of the best bets of the match.
Quick Rich
Curtis Jones came on as a substitute after months against Chelsea after returning from injury and is expected to start the match, therefore betting on him to score at odds of 3.40 (betway) gives high minimal returns.
Betting on the result is always a good way to earn big. We expect a close game but Liverpool should be able to get the win with the final scoreline being 2-1 at odds of 9.00 (bet365).
Win/Lose/Draw
Though Shrewsbury have been in good for, Liverpool are one of the best teams in Europe and have key players like Jota, Robertson, Milner and Alisson available for the match, hence they are favourites to win at odds of 1.22 (betway).
Bet During the Match
Udoh has scored three goals in his last four games, therefore if he starts the match, betting on him to score at odds of 4.50 (betway) is a good bet.
