How Liverpool could line up against Everton

How Liverpool could line up against Everton

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp only has one injury concern to manage for Sunday's Merseyside derby with Everton at Anfield in the Premier League.

Roberto Firmino missed the 4-0 win over Manchester United with a foot injury and will need assessing ahead of this one, but Klopp is otherwise working with a fully-fit squad.

The Reds boss should elect to make a couple of alterations ahead of the first leg of their Champions League semi-final with Villarreal, but Alisson Becker should hold his place in goal nonetheless.

Joel Matip and Virgil van Dijk ought to continue their partnership as Champions League specialist Ibrahima Konate waits in reserve, but one change in defence could see Kostas Tsimikas come in at left-back as Andy Robertson enjoys a rest.

Klopp spoke highly of both Thiago Alcantara and Naby Keita in his pre-match press conference, and the latter could now demote the Spaniard to the bench amid the unforgiving schedule.

Fabinho and Jordan Henderson should both hold their spots despite competition from James Milner and Curtis Jones, and once again, Klopp has some key decisions to make up top.

It would not be a surprise to see Diogo Jota provide some fresh legs in the final third, with Sadio Mane potentially dropping out as Mohamed Salah and Luis Diaz continue out wide.

Liverpool possible starting lineup: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Van Dijk, Tsimikas; Henderson, Fabinho, Keita; Salah, Jota, Diaz
