Liverpool predicted lineup against Spurs in the Premier League

Let’s start this discussion on the Liverpool predicted lineup against Spurs with the formation of Jurgen Klopp. Primarily, the Liverpool boss has gone with a classic 4-3-3 formation and in this crunch game; he is expected to do the same. In goal, it is highly unlikely that Klopp would go for anyone else than his go-to man Alisson Becker.

In the defence, Trent is back in training however, he is highly unlikely to start and Joe Gomez will play as the starting right-back for Liverpool. In the centre-back position, the ever-dependable Virgil van Dijk is expected to return along with Joel Matip as his partner in that position. The left-back for the Reds will be Andy Robertson without any doubt.

It is hard to determine the midfield of Liverpool as there are so many talented players there. However, Alexis Mac Allister will surely start as he has been brilliant this season. Also, Dominik Szoboszlai has been a great addition to the Reds’ side. Curtis Jones is also likely to start as Klopp has trusted him so far this season ahead of Gravenberch.

When it comes to the forward line, Liverpool’s talisman, Mohamed Salah will start as the right winger. Darwin Nunez has been fantastic this season as he is scoring goals for fun and is expected to lead the line. Luis Diaz should start of the right instead of Jota in this crucial game.

Liverpool predicted lineup vs Spurs: Alisson, Gomez, van Dijk, Matip, Robertson; Mac Allister, Szoboszlai, Jones; Salah, Nunez, Diaz.
