4-3-3: Liverpool's Strongest Lineup That Could Return Them To Winning Form
Liverpool will look to get back to winning ways in the Premier League when they host Brighton & Hove Albion at Anfield on Saturday.
In the meantime, the visitors will make their debut under new manager Roberto De Zerbi.
Even if they beat Brighton this weekend, Liverpool will not be able to catch them in the league due to their slow start.
Liverpool have won just two of their first six league games, but their upcoming match against Brighton will be their first in four weeks due to Queen Elizabeth II's death and the international break.Despite having chances to win, Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool drew 0-0 with Everton at Goodison Park. Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah were denied by Jordan Pickford.
Liverpool defeated Ajax 2-1 in the Champions League thanks to Joel Matip's 89th-minute header. After being defeated 4-1 by Napoli in their first group match, those two points could be enough to advance.
Their focus must return to league form and position, with Anfield sure to be revved up after such a long absence. Klopp will be aware of the potential stumbling block that awaits his club, especially with a new Brighton manager.Brighton has not played in the Premier League in more than four weeks. Graham Potter's final game in charge was a 5-2 victory over Leicester City.
Patson Daka tied the game at halftime after Kelechi Iheanacho scored in the first minute.
Allister was in fine form on the day, as he has been all season after moving to a deeper midfield position, scoring a penalty and curling a free kick past Danny Ward. The Argentine international's hat-trick was disallowed due to offside.It remains to be seen how quickly and profoundly De Zerbi alters Potter's winning recipe. In the first six games of the season, Potter led his team to 13 points.
The Italian was known for his attacking style at Sassuolo in Serie A, but a trip to Anfield is one of the most difficult managerial debuts any manager could face.
