Two changes: the predicted starting lineup for Liverpool’s 4-3-3 match against Aston Villa
Liverpool appears to have the upper hand in securing a £100 million signing. In terms of team news, the German manager may make two changes to the squad that started in the 4-2 victory over Spurs in the previous fixture.
In defense, Ibrahima Konate could replace Quansah to partner with skipper Virgil van Dijk in central defense. Alisson is likely to retain his place in goal, while Trent and Robbo are expected to feature in the fullback positions.
In midfield, Stefan Bajcetic could earn his first start of the season in the defensive midfield role, alongside Mac Allister and Elliott, who impressed with a superb goal against Tottenham.
In attack, Gakpo and Salah, who both scored in the last fixture, are anticipated to start, along with Player of the Month for April, Luis Diaz. Meanwhile, Darwin Nunez, who has been linked with a move away from the club, might find himself on the bench again.
Predicted Liverpool Starting XI vs. Aston Villa: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Bajcetic, Mac Allister, Elliott; Salah, Gakpo, Diaz.
