Liverpool Struggles: Concerns Mount Over Declining Shot Conversion Rate

Liverpool failed to score in their second consecutive game at Anfield, despite numerous chances causing concern over their declining shot conversion rate. Jurgen Klopp team went from a 24 games streak with goals to two games without scoring with missed opportunities plaguing them. Against Crystal Palace, Liverpool had a high expected goals (xG) figure and created several big chances but failed to capitalize.

With defensive vulnerabilities and missed opportunities, their defeat leaves the title race in Manchester City hands. Sky Sports’ Jamie Carragher emphasized the urgent need for Liverpool to address their poor shot conversion percentage, highlighting their chaotic attacking style compared to City controlled approach. Liverpool attacking profile, characterized by speed and dynamism, lacks composure and precision.

Jurgen Klopp must address this issue quickly to remain competitive in the title race.
