Liverpool have confirmed their starting XI to face Fulham, with Jurgen Klopp’s side looking to close in on Premier League leaders Arsenal.
The Reds have been in brilliant form at Anfield this season, with the Merseyside giants winning every league game home this campaign ahead of today’s clash against Fulham.
Here’s how Liverpool will line up this afternoon in what is a huge Premier League fixture…
Liverpool starting XI to face Fulham: Kelleher; Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Van Dijk, Tsimikas; Mac Allister, Gravenberch, Szoboszlai; Salah, Nunez, Diaz
Substitutes: Adrian, Gomez, Konate, Quansah, Jones, Endo, Elliott, Gakpo, Doak
Caoimhin Kelleher starts for Liverpool against Fulham
With Alisson Becker out injured, Kelleher replaces the Brazilian international between the sticks, with the 25-year-old making his first Premier League start in over seven months.
Lauded as ‘world-class’ by assistant manager Pep Lijnders, today will be a huge chance for Kelleher to showcase his skills against a good Premier League side in Fulham.
With Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold starting in defence, Kelleher is in good hands to keep a clean sheet, especially with Liverpool’s home form as good as it is.
Also returning to the Liverpool starting XI is Ryan Gravenberch, with the Dutch international back in the midfielder alongside regular Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai.
The summer trio all have the qualities to give Fulham real problems in the midfield, and unleashing the likes of Mac Allister could give Liverpool fans something to cheer about in this fixture.
With Darwin Nunez, Luis Diaz and Mohamed Salah leading the line, today could has all the makings of being yet another comfortable win for Liverpool at Anfield this season.
