Paddy Power ambassador and Liverpool god Phil Thompson is lacing up his boots once more to give us the low-down on his old side’s chances this weekend. The Reds are rightly huge favourites at home against their struggling Championship opponents, Cardiff.
WELCOME TO PADDY POWER NEWS!
But can we unearth some value in this one-sided affair on the telly at 12pm on Sunday? If one man can it’s Thommo and here’s his Liverpool v Cardiff tips for their FA Cup 4th Round clash this weekend.
12pm: Liverpool v Cardiff
TV: ITV and ITV Hub
You’ve got to fancy Liverpool in this one. Last weekend they had a really good result because they’d been struggling a bit, had Cardiff. They’re in the lower reaches of The Championship and it’s not been going too well for them.
They beat Nottingham Forest, who were on a good run, so it’s not a bad result for them. They’ve only had one clean sheet all season, though. If they’ve got only one clean sheet and Liverpool have scored at least two goals in 26 out of their last 30 games in all competitions you have to fancy Liverpool, quite obviously, to Win this one.

They’ve only lost two games in the last 42 in all competitions. I do fancy them strongly. Diogo Jota has been away and had a break so he will play. I’m going for Liverpool to win this 3-0. It might even be worth a go Liverpool (-2) on the handicap and Jota to Score Anytime.
