Mane, Milner And Fabinho To Start, Henderson, Wijnaldum And Ox Out: Liverpool’s Predicted XI To Face Burnley

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp could make a few changes due to the short turnaround between the Brighton game and the Burnley fixture today.

Andy Robertson is expected to replace Neco Williams at left-back. Dejan Lovren has returned to full fitness but Joe Gomez is likely to keep his place alongside Virgil van Dijk in the centre of defence.

With Jordan Henderson out for the season with a knee injury, James Milner could come in, with Fabinho coming back into the starting line up in place of Georginio Wijnaldum. Naby Keita is expected to stay in the side following his impressive recent displays.

Up front, Sadio Mane should return to the starting eleven with Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain making way, while Mo Salah is unlikely to be rested as he chases the golden boot.

Klopp has been resting at least one of his front three, for the most part, in games since the restart so Takumi Minamino may be given his chance ahead of Roberto Firmino.

Liverpool’s Predicted XI To Face Burnley:

Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, van Dijk, Robertson, Keita, Fabinho, Milner, Salah, Minamino, Mane
