These teams can turn up at Anfield, let Liverpool have the ball and challenge them to break their defense down. Eighteen points has to be the target, yet five of the matches are against sides who are in the division’s top eight clubs for fast breaks — even with no more scheduled Rashford visits, after two vastly contrasting Manchester United contests were already played out. In the previous 13 seasons of Premier League action, there have been just four instances of a club scoring and conceding at least five such goals. Liverpool has six home games to play, and given its woeful away form, they will be crucial in the quest for Champions League qualification. The figures also showed that both Aston Villa and Arsenal have converted four of its 16 fast breaks this season, giving them a higher conversion rate than the Reds too. Sadly, we must now turn our attention to the back of the field. By some bizarre coincidence, Liverpool have conceded five goals from 27 fast breaks faced, identical numbers to what it has posted in attack. They noted that the Reds have had 27 fast breaks so far this season, the most in the division. For all its other struggles this season, the Reds haven't lost this skill entirely. The list is a long one.
