Liverpool is set to host Aston Villa at Anfield today, November 1, 2025, at 8 PM GMT, in a Premier League match where both teams are vying for a crucial climb up the league table.

The match holds significant importance for Liverpool, who are currently struggling to find their form. The defending champions have suffered four consecutive league defeats, with their most recent loss being a 3-2 defeat against Brentford. Adding to their woes, they were also eliminated from the League Cup after a 3-0 defeat at home against Crystal Palace in midweek. This defeat has intensified the pressure on Liverpool's manager, Arne Slot, as questions arise regarding his team selections. Liverpool currently sit seven points behind league leaders Arsenal, making tonight's game all the more critical. Several players are doubtful for the match, including Alexander Isak and Curtis Jones who are nursing groin problems. Alisson Becker, Jeremie Frimpong, and Giovanni Leoni are confirmed absentees due to injury, while Amara Nallo is suspended. However, there is a possibility that Ryan Gravenberch may return from an ankle injury.

Aston Villa, managed by Unai Emery, have experienced a contrasting trajectory this season. After a slow start, they have bounced back impressively, securing four consecutive league wins. Their most recent victory was a notable 1-0 win against Manchester City. Despite their strong league form, Villa suffered a 2-1 defeat against Go Ahead Eagles in the Europa League. Emery has acknowledged the challenge his team faces against Liverpool, expressing both pride in his team's progress and concern ahead of the match.

For viewers in the UK, the game will be broadcast live on TNT Sports, with coverage starting at 7 PM on TNT Sports 1 and TNT Sports Ultimate. TNT Sports subscribers can also stream the match live online via the Discovery+ app and website.

The stakes are high as Liverpool seeks to end their losing streak and Aston Villa aims to continue their winning momentum.
