Preston North End vs Liverpool – Liverpool’s Predicted Lineup | EFL Cup

Liverpool are next up against Championship outfit Preston North End in the Round of 16 fixture list of the Carabao Cup on Wednesday.

Jurgen Klopp’s men turned up at their very best on Sunday in a 5-0 rout of arch-rivals Manchester United at Old Trafford in what was a memorable win for the Merseysiders.

Let us now take a look at how Jurgen Klopp might set his Liverpool side for the game against Preston –

4-3-3

Adrian could be handed a very rare start between the sticks for Liverpool with the Spaniard serving as the third-choice option in the goalkeeping department at Anfield.

Klopp will ring in changes in the defence with the likes of Neco Williams, Joe Gomez and Kostas Tsimikas likely to come in along with Joel Matip who was rested in the win over United.

Naby Keita and James Milner left the pitch with injury concerns on Sunday and it is expected that the duo will be sidelined for the upcoming game which could mean a return to the teamsheet for Curtis Jones.

Sadio Mane will be backed for a return to the forward lineup and the fringe pairing of Divock Origi and Takumi Minamino could be in the running for a start.
