How to analyse the fixture

Runs behind the full-backs and the quality of the first pass after winning possession are two key points to watch. Also examine how the penalty area is protected against cut-backs. The 2-2 draw at Anfield in January 2025 illustrates why a lead is not enough to describe control of a match; chances in the closing minutes matter too.
