Liverpool will be riding high after their last-minute win over Everton but face a tough test against Burnley at Turf Moor.
The Clarets are 19th in the table but they are never easy opponents to play. Sean Dyche is under some pressure as he looks to turn things around for the side and Jurgen Klopp knows we have to win here ahead of the clash against Bournemouth at the weekend.
The Reds might make a few changes to the side given some injury news and concerns, and here is our predicted line-up ahead of the game on Wednesday.
Predicted Liverpool XI
Formation: 4-3-3
Manager: Jurgen Klopp
Alisson (GK)
Alisson made a huge save from Andre Gomes on Sunday and would look to keep another clean sheet against Burnley too.
Joe Gomez (RB)
Gomez provides more solidity at the back than Trent Alexander-Arnold and Klopp might think about playing it safe at the back.
Virgil van Dijk (CB)
We can’t think about a game without the Dutch defender starting. Van Dijk has been excellent for us and should continue in the starting XI for the Reds.
Dejan Lovren (CB)
Lovren might not be played in some of the big games but the Croatian could start on Wednesday.
Alberto Moreno (LB)
Andy Robertson has a slight knock and we could see Moreno get a rare start for the Reds.
James Milner (CM)
Milner did not start in our win over Everton and Klopp could rotate the side around ahead of the Burnley tie.
Jordan Henderson (CM)
Liverpool’s captain was suspended for the derby and should make a return to the starting XI on Wednesday.
Naby Keita (CM)
Keita did a decent job for Liverpool coming off the bench on Sunday, and he certainly could help our attack on Wednesday.
Xherdan Shaqiri (LW)
Shaqiri missed a great chance against Everton but he was great in the game and should keep his place in the team, especially with Sadio Mane having a knock.
Divock Origi (ST)
Roberto Firmino seems tired and could do with a rest and we could see our derby hero get a start.
Mohamed Salah (RW)
The Egyptian has to be in great touch against a tough Burnley side, and hopefully, he finds the back of the net at Turf Moor.
