After losing five games in a row before 1972, Liverpool was relegated. They soon copied the devil s schedule and challenged Real Madrid and Manchester City.

Last season, Manchester City won 11 of their first 14 games, followed by a five-game losing streak and only one win in 13 games. Guardiola encountered the biggest dilemma of his coaching career. Unexpectedly, a similar story seems to be happening to Liverpool this season.

Liverpool, which started with seven consecutive wins and repeatedly defeated its opponents at the last minute, has lost the last four games. Then the sound of Slott's dismissal was heard. After losing a few games, there is no need for the defending champion coach to sack. However, statistics show that Liverpool’s last five-game losing streak occurred 72 years ago. In that season, Liverpool finally ranked at the bottom and lost the qualification for the top league, breaking the record of staying in the top league for 49 consecutive seasons. It was not until almost 10 years later, under the leadership of meritorious coach Shankly, that they could return to the highest stage in England.

The question is, will Liverpool lose five games in a row?

Starting from the middle of this week until the next international match day, there are still three weeks. Liverpool needs to play double games a week and complete 6 games. First of all, Liverpool will go away to challenge Frankfurt in the middle of the week. This is the third game of the Champions League stage. On the weekend, it will be an away game to challenge Brentford. In the past five meetings between the two sides, Liverpool has maintained a complete victory.

Next week, Liverpool will have two games at home. The first is the League Cup round of 16. They face Crystal Palace for the third time this season. Liverpool's losing streak started with Crystal Palace. They also lost to the same opponent in the Community Shield and lost the championship. On the weekend, they faced Aston Villa. Villa has been very strong recently, winning five consecutive games in all competitions. It is obvious that they have broken out of the six-game winless cycle at the beginning of the season.

Next week, Liverpool’s real challenge will come. They will face Real Madrid at home in the middle of the week. This is the fourth round of the Champions League. Then they will go to Manchester to challenge Manchester City away. Both opponents are quite strong. I believe they will have a big impact on the Champions League qualifying situation and the Premier League championship situation.

It can be seen that the next six opponents, except for Brentford, whose strength has declined a lot, the other five opponents will not be easy. Pessimistic fans may feel that Manchester City only won 1 game in more than 10 games last season, and maybe it will really happen to Liverpool.

In fact, such a devilish schedule was "rehearsed" at almost the same moment last season. In late October last year, after drawing with Arsenal, Liverpool split their efforts in the League Cup, Premier League and Champions League. The league opponents were somewhat strong, and the Champions League also had to face Bundesliga teams, but it was replaced by Bayer Leverkusen. The last two games were also Real Madrid and Manchester City. In the end, Liverpool won seven consecutive victories, causing an uproar in the outside world. It turned out that this was the real man.

In the new season's seven-game winning streak, Liverpool often relies on goals at the end of the game to win. It is considered to lack domineering. Once the "luck" is gone, it will start a losing streak. The next 6 games are the best opportunity to prove yourself. Victory or defeat is a common thing in military affairs. Failure is not terrible. What is important is whether you can get out of it quickly.

Four consecutive losses is the end, can Liverpool do it?
