Here’s how we should line up:It’s time to get behind Neco Williams. He’s not played at his best level in recent games, but the young Welsh defender is crucial while Klopp’s deck is without starting right-back Trent Alexander Arnold and James Milner.Rhys Williams and Joel Matip must improve communication to avoid a repeat of the Atalanta game. Kostas Tsimikas returns.Klopp may opt for 4-2-3-1 with such few midfield players available. It seems too soon to start Henderson despite a good showing at the Amex Stadium on Saturday. Jones moves back into midfield after a cameo at right-back.Fans are wanting to see more from Takumi Minamino and the Japanese star should fare better in a more familiar position. Salah returns after fuming off the pitch in Brighton with Mane and Jota completing the attack.This game could easily turn into a shoot-out which means the likes of Roberto Firmino and Jordan Henderson will be poised for the second half. The five substitutions rule is more important than ever as the Reds tread through the busy festive period.Score prediction: Liverpool 3 – 2 AjaxHow does Ross think Liverpool will line up?
