On the face of it, away to shitty, draw would not be a bad result. Win would be excellent, loss would be a setback (though not a huge one, cause its so early, neither side has any real momentum yet).
Will be most interested to see if he plays Coutinho - didn't have great day out last Sun. Starting him would say BR is going for it - not starting him is us more in containment mode. BR usually errs on the positive side, so reckon he'll start him - but will be close call.
Bloody pity Lallana or Lazar are not available, even as subs.
