Liverpool head to Villa Park determined to maintain their 100 per cent start to the new Barclays Premier League campaign.

The Reds have yet to hit top form in their opening two games but have done just enough to ensure they have taken maximum points from encounters with Sunderland and Middlesbrough respectively.

However, Martin O'Neill's Villa will provide their biggest test to-date and Liverpool will be hoping they can claim a similar result to the one that saw them clinch an opening day of the season victory at Villa Park last year.
