Salah, Wijnaldum and Robertson To Start, Keita And Minamino Out: Liverpool’s Predicted XI To Face Palace

Liverpool looked rusty and one dimensional in attack against Everton on Sunday and they will need more about them if they want to secure the three points against Crystal Palace this evening.

In defence, James Milner’s hamstring injury should not cause too many issues, with Andy Robertson back fit and ready to start his first game since the Premier League’s resumption.

With Joel Matip also sidelined with a toe injury, it will allow Joe Gomez to come back into the centre of defence alongside Virgil van Dijk, with Trent Alexander-Arnold at right-back.

In midfield, Klopp will be very aware of Palace’s threat on the counter-attack and it could mean that Naby Keita is dropped for Georginio Wijnaldum, which will be harsh on the Guinean after his good display at Goodison Park.

After Klopp confirmed that Mo Salah is now ready to start, the Egyptian will almost certainly replace Takumi Minamino on the right-hand side, with Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane keeping their places.

Liverpool’s Predicted XI To Face Palace:

Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, van Dijk, Robertson, Henderson, Fabinho, Wijnaldum, Salah, Firmino, Mane
