Here’s how we should line up:
No need to change the defence. While Kabak and Phillips came away with some lessons to learn in Spain, Klopp doesn’t have another viable option. Trent’s goal should hopefully give him the confidence to play aggressively on Wednesday. Fabinho starts in the six after playing much better at the weekend against Villa. The Brazilian needs to dominate this game as he did against Barcelona two years ago. With the game against Leipzig in mind, I’ve gone for Thiago and Curtis Jones here. Klopp needs to be aggressive and Curtis Jones can provide the quality required to break the deadlock.Firmino starts here with the press needed at its best. Sadio Mane hasn’t been at his best this year but he was definitely fouled in the build-up to Madrid’s second goal. For a player who is honest and doesn’t go down at the slightest hint of contact, it’s sad to see some of the treatment the Senegalese star has received from the referees. It’s not going to be easy but Liverpool can get the job done; take control of the game early with a first-half goal and put the Spanish giants under early pressure.
