Liverpool face Manchester City on Sunday hoping to kickstart their Premier League run-in after a mini wobble in form.
In any other campaign, this might have been considered a title decider, but Pep Guardiola’s side could be 20 points behind their rivals by the end of the weekend.
Express Sport looks at the team Arne Slot may pick.
Liverpool predicted XI vs Manchester City (4-2-3-1) Goalkeeper: Alisson
Alisson has kept only two clean sheets in 13 appearances against City.
The Brazilian may hope he does not come up against Erling Haaland, with the Norwegian a doubt after sitting on the bench for the entirety of City’s 3-1 defeat against Real Madrid.
Defenders: Trent Alexander-Arnold, Ibrahima Konate, Virgil van Dijk, Andy Robertson
Slot will surely pick the same back four to face City as he did against Villa.
The more technically gifted Szoboszlai will likely get the nod ahead of the more combative Jones with City struggling in possession.
He could come in for Curtis Jones on the left.
Gakpo is a doubt for the game but the Liverpool boss insists he hopes the Dutch forward will be available.
The Egyptian has scored 12 goals in 22 appearances against City - his fourth-best record against any club.
