The hosts let slip a two-goal lead to draw 2-2 with bottom club West Brom last weekend, and you can get odds of 5/1 (6.00) on them being held to another disappointing stalemate in this one.
Team News
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain went off with a serious knee injury against Roma and is out for the season, joining Adam Lallana, Emre Can and Joel Matip on the sidelines.
Paul Lambert remains without Eric Choupo-Moting, Lee Grant, and Konstantinos Stafylidis, while Kevin Wimmer is a doubt.
Vulnerable Reds
While Tuesday's impressive Champions League performance will have been daunting viewing for Lambert, the Reds continued involvement in that competition would actually work in his favour.
With Oxlade-Chamberlain's injury placing further strain on an already depleted squad, the hosts may be forced to field a weakened line-up in preparation for Wednesday's second leg at the Stadio Olimpico.
This rotation is likely to further unbalance a backline that has conceded two late goals in successive matches, and kept just one clean sheet in four.
Predictions
With Stoke having found the net in four of their last five games, odds of 91/100 (1.91) are well worth backing on them joining a weakened Liverpool team on the scoresheet for a fourth encounter in five.
