As expected, Jürgen Klopp has made some changes to the Starting XI ahead of this match. The biggest news is that Ibrahima Konate returns to the lineup after a lengthy injury. Calvin Ramsay could also make his Senior team debut off the bench as a substitute. As for Napoli, they have made a few changes from their first meeting, but the pairing of Osimhen and Kvaratskhelia, which gave Liverpool so much trouble in the first meeting remains intact.
Meret, Di Lorenzo, Ostigard, Kim- Min-Jae, Olivera, Ndombele, Lobotka, Anguissa, Politano, Osimhen, Kvaratskhelia
Idasiak, Sirigu, Juan Jesus, Mario Rui, Elmas, Lozano, Simeone, Zielinski, Zerbin, Zanoli, Gaetano, Raspadori.
Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Konote, Van Dijk, Tsimikas, Fabinho, Milner, Thiago, Jones, Salah, Firmino
Adrian, Kelleher, Gomez, Elliott, Ramsay, Núñez, Robertson, Carvalho, Bajcetic, Phillips
I absolutely love this lineup from Klopp. Konate returns to the back line just in time to be tested against one of the most potent offenses in World Football. It will be good to see him test his fitness against talent where the result does not matter that much. It’s also the perfect time to bring Ramsey on as a sub to make his debut.
Supporters have been waiting to see the Scottish teen with the senior team for a long time and now is their chance. I also really like the pairing of Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino up front. Those two have arguably been the best goal-scoring threats the Reds have had all season and they are more than capable of matching Napoli’s offensive firepower.
