Preview
The Reds haven’t secured a victory in any competition since they bested Arsenal 3-1 at Anfield in Premier League play on Sept. 28.
The Gunners took their revenge three days later, eliminating Liverpool from the EFL Cup on penalties in the fifth round following a scoreless draw. Three days after that, the Reds suffered their worst league defeat in 57 years, falling to Aston Villa 7-2 on the road; they lost to Tottenham by the same score in 1963.
On Oct. 17, Liverpool had a rebound victory in their sights before conceding an 81st-minute equalizer to Everton, again on the road, and settling for a 2-2 draw to bring their Premier League total to 10 points across five matches, good for third on the table.
“I thought the performance was really good, especially the reaction from the previous game,” Reds midfielder and captain Jordan Henderson said, according to the club’s official website. “We’re really happy about the performance level and the intensity that we showed.”
En route to the point, Liverpool lost Virgil van Dijk for the foreseeable future. The star defender suffered a torn ACL during a controversial challenge by Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford.
“It’s a big blow for us. For him personally, obviously. But for us as a team, a massive blow,” Henderson said, per the club site.
“I’m just gutted for him. So, it’s been a tough couple of days, I spoke to him yesterday. And yeah, it’s a difficult moment, but that’s when you need to be there for each other.”
He added: “You’ve got to use times like this to be stronger and to be even more together than we already are. And use it as a positive in some way — I know it sounds ridiculous at the moment, but that’s what you need to try to do. We need to try to look forward and try to help us in the next however many months Virgil will be out for.”
Ajax sit in second on the Eredivisie table with four victories and a defeat. They recovered from their first and only defeat in any competition — a 1-0 road loss against FC Groningen on Oct. 4 — by pounding SC Heerenveen 5-1 at home on Sunday.
They’ll be without a star of their own on Wednesday, as manager Erik ten Hag declared 20-year-old Brazilian striker Antony was “not fit” for the match, according to Reuters.
“But it should not affect us because we had already anticipated there would be games where we would not be able to use him, or where we would have to change the team around,” ten Hag said, per Reuters, “and we have ensured that when one player falls away there is another to take his place.”
