Liverpool are expected to bring back several key players for their significant showdown against Manchester United this Sunday in the Premier League.
Jurgen Klopp chose to keep players such as Alisson Becker, Mohamed Salah, and Trent Alexander-Arnold at home, fielding the club’s youngest ever European eleven for Thursday’s Europa League match against Union Saint-Gilloise, which had no bearing on the standings.
4-3-3 Liverpool Predicted XI Vs Manchester United
Defence
Alisson Becker will function in between the sticks for the Reds as he looks to earn a clean sheet at home. Virgil Van Dijk will play alongside Ibrahima Konate at the centre of the Liverpool backline as they try to keep the opposition at bay throughout the 90 minutes.
Trent-Alexander Arnold will operate as the right-back while Kostas Tsimikas continues to impress on the other side as the left-back.
Joe Gomez will offer cover for the defensive positions on the bench.
Midfield
Wataru Endo, Curtis Jones and Dominik Szoboszlai will operate as Klopp’s primary central midfielders as they try to establish their superiority over the opposition at the centre of the park. All three of them have to move the ball well if they want to create enough chances for Liverpool to earn a convincing win at Anfield.
Harvey Elliot will be named on the bench as he waits for a chance to make an impact in the second 45 minutes if required.
Attack
Luis Diaz will try to catch the eye as the left-winger while Mohamed Salah will look to put his pace to good use on the right flank.
Darwin Nunez will spearhead the Merseyside club’s attack up top. The Uruguay international will have to carry most of the goal-scoring workload for his team.
Cody Gakpo will take a spot on the bench as he waits for a chance to impress in the final third.
