In the Liverpool League away game against Crystal Palace, Jota is expected to complete the miracle of 100 goals in his club career, and he is still 2 goals away from this milestone. The 25-year-old Jota made his debut in the Portuguese club Pasos Ferreira. He represented the team in 48 appearances and scored 18 goals; after that, Jota joined Atlético de Madrid, but never represented the first-line team. The team has played, but he played 37 times during the loan to Porto and scored 9 goals.

It is worth mentioning that in Liverpool’s 2-0 away victory over Arsenal in the League Cup this week, Jota scored two goals for the team.

Liverpool Prince Arnold can be called the defender with the strongest assist ability in the world. After sending 2 assists to help Liverpool beat Arsenal 2-0 away in the League Cup semi-final this week, he has 14 assists this season, including the Premier League. Sent 10 assists, beating teammate Salah, ranking first in the league assists list. Statistics show that Arnold’s assists this season have been infinitely close to the record for the most in a single season. He once sent 15 assists in the 2018-2019 season and 2019-2020 season, and the number of appearances in these two seasons reached 40 and 49 respectively. , while the Liverpool Prince played only 24 times this season and scored 2 goals. It should be pointed out that Arnold is the only player in the Premier League with more than 10 assists in all competitions this season, and he is also the defender who has sent the most assists in the five major leagues.
Aspect 3: Liverpool’s 300-game league milestone
In the past, Fabinho has become Liverpool’s thigh. During the absence of Salah and Mane, it can be said that he can attack and defend. In the past 4 games, he scored 3 goals. Last weekend, Liverpool 3-3 at home in the league. 0 victory over Brentford, it was him who took the lead. Statistics show that if Fabinho can play in Liverpool’s away game against Crystal Palace, it will be the 300th league milestone of his club career, including 30 La Liga matches (Castile) and 1 La Liga match. (Real Madrid), 190 Ligue 1 matches (Monaco) and 101 Premier League matches (Liverpool), a total of 299 games and 30 goals, including 5 Premier League goals in three and a half years.
pre-match public opinion
Liverpool coach Klopp: It’s a great thing to be able to reach the final of a competition, and we hope to maintain such a good momentum for the rest of the season. Last night, the lads let themselves go, their music was so loud, they really should be relaxing like that. In the current situation, we feel good. Until the game against Crystal Palace, we needed to create a different atmosphere because Crystal Palace didn’t give us gifts. (Last season, Liverpool 7-0 away to Crystal Palace) It’s rare, but it happens anyway. This kind of thing is abnormal and usually doesn’t happen. In that game, we seemed to score every shot. Crystal Palace have changed and improved and they look like a solid team. Crystal Palace are a very good Premier League team, but sometimes the results are not satisfactory. I think we’re going to be facing a very tricky team this time around.
