With the midfield continuing to prove problematic, it’s possible that Jurgen Klopp may look to further experiment with his available options, though the likelihood remains that the German tactician will continue to show faith in the trio of Fabinho, Jordan Henderson and Thiago Alcantara.

EOTK’s predicted XI: Alisson, Trent, Van Dijk, Matip, Tsimikas, Fabinho, Henderson, Thiago, Diaz, Jota, Salah
