1Plenty of snow on Merseyside. Could make roads around Anfield tricky and put tonights game in doubt. @talkSPORT— Graham Beecroft (@gbeeky) January 30, 2019The most likely answer is: No.There should be no problems with the snow at Anfield due to the technology utilised by clubs to keep pitches clear, such as under-soil heating and overhead lighting.The real potential for the game not going ahead is apropos safety of those getting to the stadium beforehand and leaving after the final whistle. Snowy and icy roads often lead to travel chaos, and a decision may be made to call off the match so the general public are not forced to leave their homes and risk driving in unsafe conditions.It is claimed few roads have been treated with grit or salt, leading to vehicles skidding of their own accord.
Absolute mayhem in south Liverpool this morning. Gridlock, buses stuck and cars skidding everywhere. No sign of any roads having been treated with grit/salt. 5-mile round trip on school run has taken 2hrs— James Pearce (@JamesPearceEcho) January 30, 2019One other main form of travel does not seem to be affected by the snow, with Merseyrail confirming trains are running and calling at all stations, though delays of up to 15 minutes may occur.
