Liverpool vs Derby Prediction: Will the Lancers be able to put up a good fight at Anfield?

Liverpool will face Derby County at home in the third round of the English League Cup. The Merseyside side have been unbeaten in their last five encounters. Will the Lancers be able to put up a good fight at Anfield?

The team has been playing quite unstable. In the Premier League, for example, they are losing points in games where they are clear favorites - defeats to Nottingham Forest and Leeds United. However, against top-flight opponents, the Reds show a high level of play - victories over Manchester City and Tottenham. Liverpool is currently sitting in eighth place in the EPL table.

Derby County approaches the Cup game with a four-match unbeaten streak. They are playing in the first English league this season. As a result of 17 matches, the team has 25 points. At the moment, Derby County is sitting in seventh place in the standings and is looking to return to the Championship. They are just two points behind the playoff spot.

The upcoming match against Liverpool will be an excellent opportunity for the Derby County players. They will do their best to prove themselves. Certainly, Jurgen Klopp will rest his leaders after some challenging games. Let's not forget that the Merseyside base played almost without rest, given the personnel problems due to injuries. We can expect a lot of corner kicks before half-time here, and we might also consider a plus handicap for the visitors.
