Curtis Jones and Ryan Gravenberch will play as deeper midfielders, whilst Dominik Szoboszlai takes up his usual role as the advanced midfielder.

Cody Gakpo starts again on the left-wing whilst Mohamed Salah is on the right; the Egyptian loves playing against his former club, and will likely be on hot form. Diogo Jota starts at striker for the seventh time in the league this season, with Darwin Nunez starting just once.

Starting Lineup: Kelleher, Robertson, Van Dijk, Konate, Alexander-Arnold, Jones, Gravenberch, Szoboszlai, Gakpo, Jota, Salah.

Bench: Nunez, Endo, Mac Allister, Diaz, Gomez, Morton, Jaros, Quansah, Tsimikas.

Notable Changes

Slot used a lot of rotation in the last match. Today, Szoboszlai and Robertson return to the lineup; they are usual mainstays and will be required in today’s difficult fixture. Kostas Tsimikas drops to the bench. Jones stays in the lineup due to Alexis Mac Allister dropping out with tiredness after Argentina duty, whilst Gakpo keeps Luis Diaz out of the side for a second game running.
