Diaz, Mane And Thiago To Start, Salah And Van Dijk On The Bench: Liverpool’s Predicted XI To Face Wolves

Liverpool know that they only have an outside chance of clinching the league title but they need to do their job when they face Wolves this afternoon.

Alisson will start in goal, with both Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andy Robertson expected to start in the two fullback positions after being rested against Southampton midweek.

With Virgil van Dijk only likely to be fit enough for the bench, Ibrahima Konate could partner Joel Matip in the centre of defence.

Thiago is expected to be brought back into the side to make up a midfield three with Jordan Henderson and Naby Keita, who worked well together in the FA Cup final last weekend.

Manager Jurgen Klopp probably has the most decisions to make up front with Mo Salah not 100% fit. Diogo Jota could deputise for the Egyptian, with Luis Diaz and Sadio Mane making up the rest of the forward line.

Liverpool’s Predicted XI To Play Wolves:

Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Konate, Robertson, Keita, Henderson, Thiago, Jota, Mane, Diaz
