one hand, Aston Villa will come into their game with some confidence. After all, when last these teams met, Liverpool beat the Villains by a 1-0 score, but Aston Villa was a late Christian Benteke penalty attempt away from earning a draw.
Instead, Simon Mignolet rose to the challenge and made a huge save, preserving the victory.
On the other hand, that game was at Villa Park. And Luis Suarez was still suspended. And Aston Villa come into this match having lost six of eight games. And, well, Liverpool have been playing excellent football since and have won seven of nine.
So maybe the Villains won't be feeling so great about this matchup after all.
When: Saturday, January 18 at 12:30 p.m. ET/5:30 p.m. GMT

Watch: NBC; NBC Sports Live Extra; Sky Sports 1 (U.K.); BBC One (U.K.); Sky Go (U.K.)
