Shrewsbury travel to face Liverpool in the FA Cup for the second time in this fledgling decade this weekend.

The Shrews came from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 with Liverpool in January 2020 to force a fourth-round replay. The Reds narrowly won 1-0 in the replay at Anfield.

The League One unit have been solid in recent weeks with three victories in four matches to establish themselves in mid-table and will be eyeing up a depleted Liverpool once again.

Liverpool postponed their Carabao Cup semi-final clash with Arsenal during the week due to COVID absences.

The outbreak, combined with Africa Cup of Nations absentees, means the Reds are severely depleted and their team selection remains a total mystery at this point with plenty of unknowns about the status of a host of players.

Our prediction: Liverpool v Shrewsbury

Many of the mismatches in the FA Cup third round should be fairly straightforward affairs for the giants in each scenario.

However, Liverpool could be the most vulnerable to an upset this weekend. Their squad status is incredibly uncertain, and Klopp’s attitude towards domestic trophies has hardly been an uplifting one.

In the last six years, Liverpool have only made it to the fifth round once. He will field the weakest version of his already weakened squad. Shrewsbury will go all-out for victory, and they could force a repetition of history here.

Our prediction: Liverpool 1-1 Shrewsbury (11/1 at bet365)
