Jurgen Klopp’s Mighty Reds return to Premier League action in the early game on Saturday at Sheffield United. Let’s have a look at the likely starting lineup.
Alisson Becker and Nathaniel Clyne are the only players out through injury at the moment. Other players who could potentially be out are Divock Origi, Sadio Mané and Naby Keita. They will all face late fitness tests.
Adrian will return in goal after Caoimhin Kelleher was given his competitive debut for The Reds at MK Dons in Wednesday night’s Carabao Cup fixture.
The back four should be back to full strength with Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andrew Robertson on the flanks and Joel Matip beside Virgil van Dijk in the centre.
In midfield, Fabinho should return at the base of the trio while Jordan Henderson and Gini Wijnaldum will be just ahead of the Brazilian.
The frontline will be the star three again. Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mané and Roberto Firmino will be itching to get back amongst the goals.
Predicted Liverpool lineup (4-3-3) Vs Sheffield United: Adrian; Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Van Dijk, Robertson; Fabinho, Henderson, Wijnaldum; Salah, Firmino, Mané
