Another Goal Spree?





Senor Benitez's charges will take on Italian outfit Lazio in their final pre-season friendly in Anfield tonight.

Already missing Mascherano, Lucas and Babel to the Olympics, the Reds will also be deprived of Captain Marvel's (that's Stevie G for the uninitiated) services due to thigh strain. Fantastic duo Keano and Torres will spearhead the attack while Xabi Alonso and the much improved French starlet, Damien Plessis will hold fort in midfield.
In previous 2 matches, the Reds plundered 4 goals each against Rangers and Valeranga with the same set of goalscorers- Torres, Alonso, Benayoun and another young French hotshot, David Ngog.
I like him a lot, he's so unlike Kuyt, a clinical finisher.
Bet that Keano will open his Anfield account tonight with Torres also getting on the scoresheet. Predictions Reds 2- 0 Lazio.
Hope the Reds will chalk up another morale boosting win before mauling Liege next week.
Fat hopes?
