It started badly, but has got progressively better, and since Christmas, Liverpool have the best form of any side in the Premier League.
They will hope they can continue that form, and – given the Reds are just five points off the Champions League places – will believe they can make the top four.
That was their stated aim at the start of the season, and with the departure of Luis Suarez would represent a reasonable return on the season, and a reasonable ambition.
The first part of the campaign was something of a disaster, largely due to a failed experiment with Mario Balotelli attemping to perform in the position occupied by Daniel Sturridge.
With Sturridge back, and if he can remain fit, they will be the side to beat in the second half of the season.
