Alisson Becker; Trent Alexander-Arnold, Joel Matip, Virgil van Dijk, Konstantinos Tsimikas; Fabinho, Naby Keita, Thiago Alcantara; Sadio Mane, Diogo Jota, Mohamed Salah
Captain Options
Mohammed Salah is the standout captain pick in this fixture. The Egyptian has scored in every opening game since joining the Reds.
Sadio Mane had an underwhelming season last year. Despite this, he scored eleven goals and made eleven assists. He can earn significant points today.
Differential Picks
Trent Alexander Arnold could return points at both ends of the pitch. In the absence of Andy Robertson, he will have a larger share of set pieces. The marauding full back has seven goals and 36 assists in the last three seasons combined.
