Aston Villa goalkeeper Martinez insists Liverpool upset can happen

Aston Villa goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez insists they're capable of upsetting Liverpool tonight.

The Villans have put together a three-game unbeaten run and are full of confidence after dispatching Burnley 3-1 at Turf Moor on Saturday.

But after finding results against the top Premier League sides hard to come by this season, Martínez is hoping Villa can show what they're capable of.

He said: “We beat them last season, it was a close game at Anfield this season and I don't want us to have the regret of respecting Liverpool too much.

“They have to respect us as well – Villa Park is not an easy ground to play at. We have to go for the three points."

Martínez added: “We need a big win, and it would be a big, big win to beat one of the best teams in Europe right now.

“After this season, where we've had a couple of four or five-game losing streaks, we deserve a big win, and hopefully it can be tomorrow night."
