Liverpool will lift the Premier League trophy on Wednesday night, their first top flight championship in 30 years. The Reds will want to finish their home season on a high but will have a tough time of it as they face a Chelsea side on a high from securing a place in the FA Cup final. Here is our predicted Liverpool lineup to face Chelsea:
Goalkeeper: Alisson Becker
The Brazilian will be hoping to keep himself in contention for the Premier League Golden Glove, he’d be miles ahead had he not missed the first two months of the season.
Right back: Trent Alexander-Arnold
Trent netted a superb goal against the Blues at Stamford Bridge earlier in the season, another wouldn’t go amiss.
Centre back: Joe Gomez
The Englishman hasn’t been completely at the races since the restart but has shown flashes of his former self, he’ll need to be at his best against an in from Olivier Giroud.
Centre back: Virgil van Dijk
Big Virg made a rare error against Arsenal, that’s his one error for the decade out of the way at least.
Left back: Andy Robertson
Robbo bagged an assist at the Emirates last time out, he’ll be looking to build on a strong performance.
Defensive midfield: Fabinho
The best defensive midfielder in the world shows up for big games, this one of the biggest in our calendar each season.
Centre midfield: Gini Wijnaldum
The Dutchman’s industriousness will be essential to winning the midfield battle against an energetic Chelsea side.
Centre midfield: Naby Keita
Naby Lad has proven to be a bright spark for the Reds since football restarted, he is finally showing the form he promised when we bought him.
Right wing: Mo Salah
Mo was off the boil at the Emirates, he has been out of sorts with his finishing lately, he has scored a blinder against Chelsea in the past.
Left wing: Sadio Mane
Sadio never lets us down, he always gives it 1000% even when things aren’t going his way. This determination will be crucial to closing down a leaky Chelsea back line.
Striker: Bobby Firmino
Bobby has his last chance to score an Anfield goal in the league this season.
