Plymouth Form

Championship side Plymouth stunned Brentford with a 1-0 away win in the third round of the FA Cup. The Pilgrims were winless in 11 before that victory and conceded 28 goals.

Plymouth’s FA Cup win couldn’t spark an upturn in league form and they failed to win in their next four. Draws with Oxford 2-2 and Sunderland 1-1 came either side of defeats to QPR 1-0 and Burnley 5-0.

The Pilgrims won for just the second time in 17 games on Saturday with a 2-1 home win against West Brom. Miron Muslic’s side conceded with 16 minutes left before Ryan Hardie’s double secured a comeback win.

Defenders Joe Edwards, Brendan Galloway and Kornél Szucs are set to miss out through injury.

Attacking midfielder Mustapha Bundu has three goals and assists this season and is likely to start.

Liverpool Form

Liverpool dominated Accrington in a 4-0 home win in the previous round of the FA Cup. Arne Slot’s outfit are one of the most in-form teams in Europe, winning 26 of their last 33 matches.

The Reds were on a three-match winning run, with eight goals scored before a rare 3-2 loss at PSV Eindhoven. Liverpool hit back with a 2-0 Premier League triumph at Bournemouth.

Another win followed and the Reds booked their place in the EFL Cup final following a 4-0 win over Tottenham. Cody Gakpo, Mo Salah, Dominik Szoboszlai and Virgil van Dijk struck to seal a 4-1 aggregate win.

Defender Trent Alexander-Arnold is Liverpool’s only injury doubt here.

Mo Salah and Cody Gakpo have scored a combined 40 goals in all competitions this season.

Verdict

Plymouth v Liverpool

Plymouth’s leaky defence is unlikely to hold a rampant Liverpool side in the FA Cup. Gakpo has been trusted to lead the Reds’ line in the cup competitions and he can keep scoring on Sunday.
