After disastrous domestic form, capped by a 3\u20130 defeat at home to Nottingham Forest, Liverpool arrive at Anfield for a Champions League tie against PSV needing stability, resilience and clarity. The international break and a win over Real Madrid in Europe offered a short reprieve, but pressure is once again mounting for Arne Slot. The squad is shredded at the back, right-backs are injured, senior defenders are scarce, and confidence is fragile. If Liverpool are to salvage anything this season, this must be the night they show they still have the spine to fight.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"827\" data-end=\"869\"><strong data-start=\"183\" data-end=\"255\">Liverpool Predicted Lineup vs PSV Eindhoven in the UEFA Champions League<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3 data-start=\"827\" data-end=\"869\">How Liverpool Have Lined Up Recently<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"870\" data-end=\"1448\">Arne Slot has been tinkering. With injuries biting and full-backs scarce, the usual 4-2-3-1 or 4-3-3 has sometimes looked more like make-do defence than championship structure. Centre backs Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate remain the backbone, but inconsistencies and poor form has called the duo into question.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"870\" data-end=\"1448\"><strong>Read More:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2025\/09\/08\/best-players-liverpool-number-9\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">The Best and Worst Players to Wear Liverpool\u2019s Number 9: The Shirt That Crowns or Destroys<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"870\" data-end=\"1448\">Midfield pivots of Ryan Gravenberch and Alexis Mac Allister have offered some control, while Dominik Szoboszlai often drifts into attacking zones to add spark. Up front, Salah has been constant, but a poor run of form has seen his goal involvement drop in recent matches.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"1455\" data-end=\"1472\">Recent Form<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1473\" data-end=\"1921\">Domestic results have spiralled alarmingly, losses mounting, goals conceded with alarming regularity, and belief fading week by week. But in Europe, there\u2019s still a pulse, a narrow win over Real Madrid offers hope that the Reds can rediscover form against a wounded opponent. The fixture against PSV isn\u2019t just about automatic qualification; it\u2019s about restoring identity, pride, and proving that Liverpool can still defend the badge on the biggest nights.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"1928\" data-end=\"1966\">Team News &amp; Injuries to Consider<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1969\" data-end=\"2075\">Both right-backs Conor Bradley and Jeremie Frimpong remain<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thisisanfield.com\/2025\/11\/liverpool-team-news-injuries-vs-psv-eindhoven\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> unavailable.<\/a> Florian Wirtz is out with a muscle issue and did not train on Tuesday, he has been ruled out for tonight.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1969\" data-end=\"2075\">Read More: <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2025\/09\/10\/best-worst-liverpool-number-7-shirt\/\" target=\"_self\">Best and Worst Liverpool Players to Wear the Number 7 Shirt<\/a><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1969\" data-end=\"2075\">Long-term absentee Giovanni Leoni\u00a0 is still unavailable Defender Joe Gomez has a knee complaint and recently required a pain-killing injection, doubts remain over whether he will be available.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"2836\" data-end=\"2854\">Liverpool Predicted Lineup<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"2856\" data-end=\"3259\">GK: <strong data-start=\"2860\" data-end=\"2878\">Alisson Becker<\/strong><br data-start=\"2878\" data-end=\"2881\" \/>RB: <strong data-start=\"2885\" data-end=\"2907\">Dominik Szoboszlai<\/strong>\u00a0<br data-start=\"2953\" data-end=\"2956\" \/>CB: <strong data-start=\"2960\" data-end=\"2979\">Virgil van Dijk<\/strong><br data-start=\"2979\" data-end=\"2982\" \/>CB: <strong data-start=\"2986\" data-end=\"3005\">Ibrahima Konate<\/strong><br data-start=\"3005\" data-end=\"3008\" \/>LB: <strong data-start=\"3012\" data-end=\"3030\">Andy Robertson<\/strong><br data-start=\"3030\" data-end=\"3033\" \/>CM: <strong data-start=\"3037\" data-end=\"3053\">Curtis Jones<\/strong>\u00a0<br data-start=\"3132\" data-end=\"3135\" \/>CM: <strong data-start=\"3139\" data-end=\"3159\">Ryan Gravenberch<\/strong><br data-start=\"3159\" data-end=\"3162\" \/>CM: <strong data-start=\"3166\" data-end=\"3189\">Alexis Mac Allister<\/strong><br data-start=\"3189\" data-end=\"3192\" \/>RW: <strong data-start=\"3196\" data-end=\"3213\">Mohamed Salah<\/strong><br data-start=\"3213\" data-end=\"3216\" \/>CF: <b>Alexander Isak<\/b><br data-start=\"3236\" data-end=\"3239\" \/>LW: <strong data-start=\"3243\" data-end=\"3257\">Cody Gakpo<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2856\" data-end=\"3259\"><strong>Featured Image Credit<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_648131\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-648131\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-648131 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/11\/imago1053173930-300x210.jpg\" alt=\"liverpool predicted lineup\" width=\"300\" height=\"210\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/11\/imago1053173930-300x210.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/11\/imago1053173930-1024x718.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/11\/imago1053173930-768x539.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/11\/imago1053173930-1536x1077.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/11\/imago1053173930-2048x1436.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-648131\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">IMAGO \/ motivio, Liverpools Dominik Szoboszlai.
