Salah, Diaz, Henderson And Konate To Start, Mane On The Bench: Liverpool’s Predicted XI To Play Burnley

After a relatively comfortable victory against Leicester last time out, Liverpool will be hoping to keep up the momentum when they face Burnley at Turf Moor tomorrow.

The Clarets have drawn against Arsenal and Manchester United recently so they have improved defensively, but their home record is pretty poor, so Jurgen Klopp’s side are firm favourites to secure the three points.

Alisson will start in goal, but there could be a change in the centre of defence, with Ibrahima Konate coming in to replace Joel Matip. Virgil van Dijk, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andy Roberton could make up the rest of the backline.

Captain Jordan Henderson has recovered from a back problem so he may be favoured ahead of the likes of Curtis Jones, Harvey Elliott and Naby Keita for a spot in the midfield three. Thiago and Fabinho should retain their places in the starting lineup.

Up front, Mo Salah will be fit to start after coming on versus Leicester. Sadio Mane is likely to be named on the bench after only recently returning to England. That means Luis Diaz will get another chance to impress, with the in-form Diogo Jota completing the eleven.

Liverpool’s Predicted XI To Face Burnley:

Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Konate, van Dijk, Robertson, Henderson, Fabinho, Thiago, Salah, Jota, Diaz
