Arne Slot was forced to make some changes to the Starting XI due to injuries, Joe Gomez starts in place of the injured Ibrahima Konate while Dominik Szoboszlai and Cody Cakpo also feature in the starting lineup after coming off of the last match. Dangerous striker Erling Halland will feature up top for Man City.

LFC Globe Verdict
Joe Gomez will face a challenge in slowing down Haaland and he could have been better in defence at times last year. I think his performance will be key in today’s match. If the backline can hold, I believe Liverpool get the win and move 11 points clear at the top of the table.
