3 reasons why Liverpool will finish in the Premier League’s top four

First team players returning to the fold

There’s no doubt that Liverpool missed Philippe Coutinho when he was out injured, and then Sadio Mane when he was at the African Cup of Nations last month.

However, Brazilian international Coutinho is slowly building himself back up to match fitness, having appeared in eight games since returning from an ankle injury he sustained against Sunderland in November, while Mane is back on Merseyside after his Senegal side lost in the quarter-finals of the AFCON.

Clearly, Liverpool are a much better side with these two in it, and with them both now back and the Reds getting closer to the eleven that powered them to the top in November, it shouldn’t be too long before Liverpool are back scoring goals and winning games.
