Javi Gracia won’t spend too much time analysing Leeds United’s Premier League win over Liverpool earlier in the season. The Whites brought an end to their eight-game winless streak back in October with a shock 2-1 win over Jurgen Klopp’s side at Anfield, with Crysencio Summerville scoring an 89th-minute winner.
Leeds are still the only team to take three league points off the Reds on Merseyside this season, and that result brought an end to Liverpool’s remarkable a run of 81 games without defeat at home in front of fans. However, it’s fair to say the circumstances are completely different for both teams now.
United resemble a very different side at present with changes coming on the field and in the dugout at Elland Road and with the end of the season approaching, they find themselves in a desperate scrap at the bottom. Liverpool are under pressure, too, and they’ll travel to West Yorkshire needing a win to breathe life into their hopes of qualifying for Europe.
