Liverpool v Aston Villa

Aston Villa are looking good on the counter-attack with Ashley Young, Stewart Downing and Gabriel Agbonlahor all playing well recently, but they seem to suffering at the back at the minute.

Richard Dunne and James Collins were solid last season but do not look the same force this term and goalkeeper Brad Friedel has had a few problems in the last few weeks.

Liverpool will look to exploit this and the fans will give former manager Gerard Houllier a welcome return to Anfield I am sure. The Reds are likely to finish above Aston Villa in the table come the end of the season but both will be further down than they have been in recent seasons.

Prediction: 2-1

Lawro was talking to BBC Sport's Alistair Magowan.
