Arne Slot has named his Liverpool starting line-up to face Leeds United in the Premier League.
The Reds will be looking to make it eight games unbeaten in all competitions when they face 16th-place Leeds in one of Thursday’s 5:30pm kick-offs.
After a poor patch of form, Slot has taken Liverpool into the top four, but they are still some way off the pace of league leaders Arsenal.
The Merseyside outfit have won their last three Premier League fixtures, while the Peacocks, despite being just a few places above the bottom three, are unbeaten in their last five games.
Slot has named as strong an eleven as he could, given the number of absentees and a fairly small squad at his disposal.
What changes would you make to Liverpool’s starting XI vs Leeds? 🤔
Arne Slot makes changes for Liverpool’s clash with Leeds United
Mohamed Salah is, of course, still competing at the AFCON after Egypt topped their group to make it into the Round of 16.
Meanwhile, Alexander Isak is a long-term absentee, leaving Slot with limited senior options in his frontline.
Florian Wirtz missed training on Tuesday, leading to speculation about his potential involvement ahead of the tie.
Cody Gakpo seemed the obvious replacement if the German missed out, given the winger returned from his own issue last week to take on Wolves.
However, Wirtz was fine to feature, and Chiesa was instead dropped from the attack in place of right-back Jeremie Frimpong.
Elsewhere, with Joe Gomez still sidelined, there were limited changes the Liverpool manager could make to his backline.
