Head-to-head
Liverpool have won eight of 10 games against Watford since the turn of the century (D1, L1).
The sides drew 3-3 in August's reverse fixture, while Watford's most recent win was a 3-0 victory at Vicarage Road on 20 December 2015.
The Hornets' last win at Anfield was a 1-0 victory on 14 August 1999, when Tommy Mooney hit the winner.
Liverpool
Liverpool are unbeaten in 17 Premier League home games (W10, D7), scoring at least twice in each of their last six top-flight games at Anfield.
Their last home defeat in the top flight came against Crystal Palace in April 2017.
The Reds have never lost consecutive Premier League games under Jurgen Klopp. It last happened from August-September 2015, whilst Brendan Rodgers was in charge.
Roberto Firmino has had a hand in six goals in his last four Premier League games against Watford (three goals and three assists).
Firmino has 13 Premier League goals this season, one shy of the record by a Brazilian (Robinho's tally of 14 for Manchester City in 2008-09).
Mohamed Salah has been directly involved in 47% of Liverpool's Premier League goals this season (24 goals and eight assists) - the highest figure in the top flight.
Jordan Henderson is set for his 200th Premier League appearance, while Georginio Wijnaldum could play his 100th game in the competition (including matches for previous club Newcastle).
Watford
The Hornets are winless in their last eight Premier League away games, losing seven of those matches.
They have scored just twice in that run, and have failed to net in their last four games on the road.
Eight of Watford's nine Premier League goals in 2018 have been scored after half-time, with seven of those being scored in the final 15 minutes.
The Hornets have conceded 50 Premier League goals this season - only West Ham (57) and Stoke (56) have worse records prior to the latest round of games.
