Liverpool‘s resurgence continued on Monday night as they were able to stifle a strong Aston Villa side and return to the sixth spot in the Premier League. A penalty and a goal from Stefan Bajcetic, along with a late strike from Mohamed Salah, saw the Reds beat the Villars 1-0 at Anfield.

Having lost two of the first three league games of the season, Liverpool are showing signs of a bounce back. Jurgen Klopp’s side has now won three consecutive Premier League matches. They are now only five points behind Tottenham with a game in hand. Their next match is against Leicester City on Friday.

Liverpool have a good chance of capitalizing on Tottenham’s draw with Brentford. If they can beat Leicester, they will move ahead of Manchester United in fifth place. A win over Wolves on Sunday would give them a top-four finish.

They should have added a third before halftime. Darwin Nunez had a number of good chances, but missed them all. The Uruguayan forward was a real threat on the right wing. He even created a few good opportunities for his teammates.

With Liverpool returning from their World Cup break on Monday, they got off to a winning start against Aston Villa in the Premier League. Two goals from Mohamed Salah, including one in the first half, helped the Reds to a 3-1 victory. It kept the gap at five points with Manchester United.

Despite a goal from Ollie Watkins, the hosts were left wondering if they had been punished for the second half. That’s because they didn’t do enough to test Alisson Becker.

The hosts had two chances to take the lead before halftime, but both were wasted. The third was a clear chance for Darwin Nunez to make it three, but he failed to get the finishing touch.

After the break, Villa pushed hard for an equaliser. They threw a lot of bodies forward, but a combination of poor quality and missed opportunities led to a nervy finish.

Jurgen Klopp’s men move up to sixth in the Premier League

Liverpool have scored six wins and one draw in 14 league matches so far this season. Despite a shaky start, the Reds have now climbed to sixth. The Champions League is still possible for the Reds but they must win at home to Tottenham and Southampton next week to seal a place in the top four.

Liverpool’s latest victory was a 3-1 success at Villa Park on Monday. Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk both scored. In a match where Liverpool failed to control possession, they deserved to pick up a point.

Robertson, who has five assists this season, broke Villa’s offside trap and provided a low cross for Salah to strike. Trent Alexander-Arnold also got on the score sheet with a goal.

Virgil van Dijk added a second. His crisp shot clipped Ezra Konsa on its way past Olsen.

The game was a close contest, with Villa having a number of chances to equalize or even to put the game to bed. But, the biggest surprise was the Reds’ resiliency against a strong Aston Villa attack. After an early goal from Salah, Van Dijk doubled Liverpool’s lead before Ollie Watkins pulled one back.

While most fans were focused on the score, Darwin Nunez was the most active player on the pitch. He completed 88 passes before being subbed off. He also made a number of dangerous runs in behind the Villa defence.

Jurgen Klopp’s side face Leicester City in the final Premier League game of the year

Leicester City will visit Liverpool for a League Cup quarter-final on Wednesday. The Reds are currently sixth in the Premier League and face an uphill battle to salvage their season.

Ahead of the clash, Jurgen Klopp has been quoted as saying his side need to make changes to their lineup. While he has already named a host of youth players in the starting XI, he could also bring in experience.

It is a busy festive fixture schedule that will affect Klopp’s team selection. He is expected to include Roberto Firmino and Naby Keita in the starting line-up, but could also use youth to fill in.

Leicester have been on the rise this season after a horrendous start. But they have suffered injuries and have lost to Manchester City, Liverpool and Chelsea. They are now six points behind leaders Manchester City.
