Caoimhin Kelleher and Ryan Gravenberch will start for Liverpool against LASK in the UEFA Europa League group stage.
Liverpool will take on LASK in the UEFA Europa League on Thursday evening, and they will look to begin the group stages with a win. The Reds are in fine form right now, having picked up four wins and a draw from five league matches.
The away side will be the firm favourites heading into this contest, and it remains to be seen whether the players can step up and get the job done. Jurgen Klopp is likely to rotate his troops in order to keep the players fresh. But the German manager refused to drop any hints about the selection in Thursday’s game against LASK during his pre-match press conference.
LASK vs Liverpool Preview: Probable Lineups, Prediction, Tactics, Team News & Key Stats
He said, “Absolutely no information about that, you will have to wait until tomorrow to have a look at the line-up. Enjoy it or don’t! But accept it and then we go. We are here to compete, not to give opportunities, for nobody: not for ours and not for them.”
Meanwhile, a report from the club’s official website has confirmed that Trent Alexander-Arnold and Thiago Alcantara have been ruled out of Thursday’s game. Otherwise, Klopp has a full-strength squad at his disposal this midweek.
Liverpool are likely to line up up in their usual 4-3-3 formation, with Caoimhin Kelleher making a rare start in goal. Joe Gomez and Kostas Tsimikas will line up as the full-backs here, and they will look to help out defensively as well as going forward. Jarell Quansah is likely to get an opportunity alongside Virgil van Dijk at the heart of the Liverpool defence.
In the middle of the park, Wataru Endo will be the anchor, and he will look to break up the opposition attacks and win the ball back for his side. Ryan Gravenberch is likely to start in the midfield along with Harvey Elliott.
The Dutchman will make his first start for Liverpool after appearing off the bench for his debut this past weekend. Gravenberch and Elliott will look to add creativity and control to the side. Finally, Diogo Jota should lead the line for Liverpool, with Ben Doak and Luis Diaz on either side of him. So, Mohamed Salah will get some rest in the Europa League clash.
Predicted Liverpool XI: Kelleher; Gomez, Quansah, Van Dijk, Tsimikias; Elliott, Endo, Gravenberch; Doak, Jota, Diaz
