It will be a clash of champions as English Sky Bet 2019/20 champions Leeds United and English Premier League champions Liverpool face each other in English Premier League Matchday 1. Liverpool kept a 100% clean sheet at Anfield throughout last season they will be looking to continue in that spirit as they take on Leeds at Anfield.
Liverpool kicks off the 2020/21 Premier League campaign with a match against Leeds United. The two teams meet in the Premier League for the first time since 2004, and, as expected, the reigning champions are seen as hot favourites to win Saturday’s football match. The Reds are eager to bounce back from the Community Shield defeat, and we are positive that they will go all guns blazing at the newcomers.
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is likely to miss the game with injury, as well as summer signings Konstantinos Tsimikas. The Whites, on the other hand, return to the English top flight following a 16-year absence. The club’s main goal is to secure the Premier League survival, but they should not be looking for points in away matches against title-chasing clubs. As always, all eyes will be on trio Mane – Firmino – Salah, who are likely to help Liverpool get off to a flying start.
