Can FC Utrech restore some pride against Liverpool tonight?

Liverpool are the Europa Group K table leaders Liverpool and tonight they welcome the Dutch side FC Utrecht to Anfield. As the runaway leaders of the group Liverpool are already through to the next stage of the tournament but FC Utrecht who are bottom of the group now cannot qualify for the last 32 and will be playing tonight purely for honour.

Liverpool however will be fielding a fairly strong side tonight with Fernando Torres, Dirk Kuyt and Glen Johnson all set to feature, they will be however without Captain Steven Gerrard who has just recovered from a hamstring injury and is believed to be making his full return in Liverpool’s next game in the Premier League against Fulham. This will be Hodgson’s reply to the poor result at the weekend against Newcastle, a win will be needed to appease the fans and board.

All odds for this game come courtesy of bookmakers Betfred.

Odds are against Arsenal tonight as they face Manchester United at Old Trafford

Thanks to the recent slip ups that have been made by Carlo Ancelotti’s Chelsea side in the Premier League, their reign on top of the table has ended with Arsene Wenger’s Arsenal managing to claim the top spot. However will they be able to stay up there for long as they travel to Old Trafford tonight for their Premier League clash.

A win for either team tonight will see the side that claims all 3 points become the top of the league, either cementing their position or gaining a valuable advantage over Chelsea.
