A few stats in our favour

[Nordic Saint]

We have only lost 1 of our last 5 matches against Liverpool.

 

We haven't conceded a single goal in the League Cup this season and if we score a goal at Anfield, Liverpool will need to score 3 and they haven't managed to do that in any of our last 5 visits to Anfield.

 

 

So, I think the key for Saints is to score a goal in the 2nd leg, which we have managed to do in our last 3 visits there.

If we score 1 goal and Liverpool score only 2, it doesn't mean we've won though. Away goals don't really matter in this competition. So it's true that Liverpool would need 3 to win if we score, but if Liverpool scores 2 we'll also need 2.

If it's 2-1 to Liverpool at the end of any extra time then we shall go through under 'away goals'.

Right. True!

Right. True!

 

Enjoy!

 

So basically any goal that we score means Liverpool would nead to score two more than us within a maximum of 120 minutes. 1-0 is the only score that would take us to penalties, other than that they need to win by at least two clear goals.
