Liverpool and Everton meet at Anfield tonight in what is sure to be a pulsating Merseyside derby encounter. We’ve had a look at the starting lineup Jurgen Klopp might go with.

Joel Matip, Fabinho and Nathaniel Clyne are all out through injury with only Matip expected to return to action in the coming weeks.

Alisson Becker is suspended after his straight red card against Brighton on Saturday. Adrian will take his place between the sticks for The Reds.

The back four is likely to consist of Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andrew Robertson on either flank with Dejan Lovren continuing his central defensive partnership with Virgil van Dijk for another game.

In midfield, Gini Wijnaldum will probably continue at the base of the trio in Fabinho’s place. Jordan Henderson and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain could hold onto their starting berths too. James Milner and Naby Keita will more than likely be used as second-half substitutes.

Liverpool should be at full strength in attack with Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mané all fit to start.

Predicted Liverpool lineup (4-3-3) Vs Everton: Adrian; Alexander-Arnold, Lovren, Van Dijk, Robertson; Wijnaldum, Henderson, Oxlade-Chamberlain; Salah, Firmino, Mané
