Defence
Alisson Becker is on the verge of making his comeback but he shouldn’t be rushed. Caomhin Kelleher is likely to operate between the sticks. Trent Alexander-Arnold should walk into the XI to take his usual right-back position.
Joe Gomez is expected to serve on the bench with Jarell Quansah moving to the centre-back position to pair up with Virgil van Dijk. Left-back Andy Robertson wasn’t convincing enough in the previous game and needs to step up this time.
