Big day for Liverpool’s season!

It’s quite obvious that Liverpool’s season is in tatters and it could be more so if they fail to produce a win tonight at Lyon. What a debacle it would be for 5 times champions of Europe if they were to get knocked out at the group stage itself. Rafa appears to be short of answers and has made some undeniably woeful decisions this EPL season and it could get from bad to worse if his team fails to gather 3 points tonight.

There are problems aplenty for the reds and it would be interesting to see the starting lineup for tonight’s big game. The injury list has grown stronger and Rafa is going to have tough time getting a fit and confident team up for the game. Based on the form of its players and more so it’s manager, I would be more hopeful than confident to predict a positive result tonight for the reds.

While everyone seemed to suggest that the win against United was the turning point for the reds, last week’s loss to Fulham has all but put an end to their premiership hopes. While a whole lot of football still has to be played and loads of surprises still in store this EPL season, Liverpool's championship chances are remarkably bleak as early as November. Europe could again be the saving grace however it could be rather optimistic to suggest so at this time. One more loss in Europe could spell doom and the game tonight is going to be huge in terms of where Liverpool ends this season. Silverware appears to be distant though it would be great to see the team advance through the group stage. I hope they do because they are a formidable force and great to watch when in full flow. I am hoping for a great display tonight from one of Europe's foremost clubs.
