Liverpool can make history this evening, the Reds can become just the third team in Premier League to go a full calendar year unbeaten. Jürgen Klopp can become the third manager to achieve the feat that not even Sir Alex Ferguson managed. With history at stake, here is the confirmed Liverpool lineup to face Sheffield United.
Goalkeeper: Alisson Becker
The Brazilian now has four clean sheets in the Premier League, not a bad return for a keeper that missed the first two months.
Right back: Trent Alexander-Arnold
With a Merseyside Derby just a few days later, Trent Alexander-Arnold still makes the Liverpool lineup to face Sheffield United.
Centre back: Joe Gomez
JoGo was solid as a rock throughout December, picking up six clean sheets.
Centre back: Virgil van Dijk
The Dutchman actually made a mistake against Wolves, that’s his lot for the next couple of years.
Left back: Andy Robertson
He never needs a rest, Andy Robbo will be terrorising the United back line.
Defensive midfield: Jordan Henderson
The skipper has been reliable as anything since Fabinho’s injury.
Centre midfield: Naby Keita
Naby can’t stop scoring at the moment, he came on off the bench against Wolves but is in the Liverpool lineup to face Sheffield United.
Centre midfield: Gini Wijnaldum
The Dutchman will be everywhere this evening, we will need his work rate against a spirited South Yorkshire side.
Right wing: Mo Salah
Mo may need a rest but with our attacking options thin at the moment we will need him to give us just a little bit more.
Striker: Roberto Firmino
Bobby has been scoring for fun recently, more of the same tonight should see off the visitors.
Left wing: Sadio Mane
The Senegalese forward is far too fast and tricky for this United back line.
