Liverpool face Sheffield United tonight with the Reds looking to turn around a dreadful run of form. The Reds have lost each of their last four but surely they can’t continue that sequence when facing the division’s bottom club. Here is our predicted Liverpool lineup to face Sheffield United:
Goalkeeper: Adrian
This week we learned the tragic news of the sudden death of Alisson Becker’s father. We expect the Brazilian to be out of the side and conspiracy theorists tell us that Adrian will start.
Right back: Trent Alexander-Arnold
The Scouser in our team was one of only two players who could leave the Merseyside Derby with his head held high.
Centre back: Ozan Kabak
The Turkish defender is showing promise in short bursts but he still has a lot of progress to make.
Centre back: Nat Phillips
As much as we’d like to see Ben Davies start we feel the boss will stick with Nat Phillips.
Left back: Andy Robertson
The Scotland captain will be hard at work down the left wing, when he plays well the rest of the team do too.
Centre midfield: Gini Wijnaldum
The Dutchman just always plays. Always.
Centre midfield: Naby Keita
The Guinean could well return to the starting lineup this evening as the Reds look to shake things up in the middle.
Centre midfield: Thiago
The Spaniard could benefit from having Keita bursting between the lines, the two lining up together could be very interesting.
Left wing: Sadio Mane
Sadio never stops trying but lately things haven’t been coming off for him. Surely tonight is the night to turn things around.
Striker: Roberto Firmino
The Brazilian has been in torrid form of late and he missed some precious chances against Everton, with no competition for his place he will likely start tonight
Right wing: Mo Salah
The Egyptian King can make the difference in an instant, we just need one of his moments of magic.
