Liverpool would be out for a daunting task in Madrid on Wednesday night as they look to overturn a 5-2 deficit from the first leg defeat to Carlo Ancelotti’s Real.
Jurgen Klopp’s Merseysiders, who were on a five-game unbeaten run in the Premier League, were handed a major upset in a 1-0 defeat to bottom side Bournemouth on Saturday.
Let us now take a look at how Jurgen Klopp might set up his Liverpool side for the upcoming game –
LIVERPOOL’S PREDICTED LINE UP AGAINST REAL MADRID (FORMATION)
4-3-3
Liverpool’s Predicted Line Up
Alisson Becker would be a certainty to start between the goalposts for Liverpool who should have an unchanged defensive lineup from the Bournemouth defeat.
Ibrahima Konate looks well-poised to join Ibrahima Konate as the second Liverpool centre-back while Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andy Robertson slot in the full-back roles.
In the midfield for Liverpool, there could be a return to the first XI for the skipper Jordan Henderson with Stefan Bajcetic likely to make way for the former.
Cody Gakpo could be another player dropping out of the XI with the fully fit Diogo Jota expected to claim a starting berth in the front line.
