Confirmed Lineups LASK vs. Liverpool

Ryan Gravenberch makes his first start in a Liverpool shirt vs. LASK as does Ben Doak. Jürgen Klopp has basically inverted his lineup, letting the bench players start and the starters come off the bench. Also of note is that each side gets additional substitutes in Europa League play, so there is the potential for a lot of players to see the pitch today.

LFC Globe Verdict

I like Klopp’s strategy with this lineup. It gives the subs starters minutes and if the game is tight late he can bring Salah and others on if the Reds need a goal. You might see a change in lineup strategy as the competition progresses, but for the opener, this is a solid team sheet.
