West Bromwich Albion vs. Liverpool: Complete Preview, Start Time and Schedule

Richard LangfordOct 23, 2011

West Bromwich rolls into this game winners of their last two EPL matches. They haven't lost an EPL match since their loss to Chelsea in their second match on August 20.

Liverpool rolls in off of two straight draws, one to Manchester United and one to upstart Norwhich City.

Both of these squads enter this match playing solid football, and they each have just two EPL losses this season.

Where: The Hawthorns in West Bromwich, Sandwell, England

Player to Watch for West Bromwich: Shane Long    

  Long is a 24-year-old forward that is coming into his own. He leads West Brom with three goals this EPL season, and he has done that on just 11 shots.

He is making the most of his chances and he is exciting to when he gets those chances.

Player to Watch for Liverpool: Luis Suarez

Suarez stock is soaring right now. The young 24-year-old has grown into his own and is a force on the pitch.

He has four goals in eight EPL matches. One of those was a huge score to lead Liverpool past Arsenal. Suarez has fired off 39 shots in EPL play.

Key Matchup:    Luis Suarez vs. Ben Foster

One look at the numbers above and it is clear that Suarez will be testing keeper Ben Foster early and often.

Foster is used to this. He has 27 saves and has conceded 11 goals this season. He is going to have to improve on that ratio if he wants to keep his team in this one.

What They're Saying: Luis Suarez has been under his share of scrutiny lately. His coach Kenny Dalgish let it be known he has his back. Here is The Telegraph on the subject:

"I'll say something but won't add to it. People question Luis Suraez's integrity and it's their integrity that needs to be questioned, not his," Dalglish said.

Suarez had also been accused of diving by United manager Sir Alex Ferguson in last week's game.

"On the football pitch he is exemplary. He's a fantastic footballer, we've got 100 percent faith in Luis Suarez and the way he conducts himself," Dalglish said.

Score Prediction: Liverpool 2, West Brom 1

I expect a fantastic and close match throughout. In the end, I see Liverpools stiffing defense frustrating West Brom into a reckless play that will lead to a counter strike by Luis Suarez.
