Liverpool predicted lineup vs Brentford - Premier League
Klopp has some decisions to make
Liverpool face a second team from west London in four days as Brentford visit Anfield this weekend.
As the season comes to an end, Jurgen Klopp's team is in good form and aiming for a sixth straight win.
Given the significant points differential between them and the top four teams, they have little chance of making the Champions League for the upcoming season, but with a few more victories and the upcoming games between the teams below them, they might be able to hold onto fifth place.
Here is how the Reds might approach their Saturday matchup with the Bees.
GK: Alisson - Two of the Premier League's best goalkeepers this season will meet at Anfield, with Alisson taking on David Raya.
RB: Trent Alexander-Arnold - Enjoying life in his new inverted role.
CB: Ibrahima Konate - Shredded by Spurs last Sunday and life won't get much easier with having to mark Ivan Toney.
CB: Virgil van Dijk - The chaotic nature of that Tottenham victory may have spared the Dutchman from becoming a meme.
LB: Andy Robertson - Likely to come back in for Kostas Tsimikas, who was dreadful in the reverse fixture.
DM: Fabinho - Pretty much the only candidate for this role given Stefan Bajcetic's season-ending injury.
CM: Jordan Henderson - Jude Bellingham has been the target of many jokes this week after his recruitment efforts were unsuccessful.
CM: Curtis Jones - Turns out there's a talented midfielder in Jones after all. Just needed some consistent game time.
RW: Mohamed Salah - One of only three players to have scored more Premier League goals than Salah this season will be on the opposing side in Ivan Toney.
CF: Cody Gakpo - Darwin Nunez didn't really impress against Fulham so expect Gakpo to come straight back in.
LW: Luis Diaz - What a joy it is to see the Colombian fit and healthy again. This will be his first game against Brentford.
