Liverpool Lineup Confirmed for Man City Clash – Just One Change as Gakpo Makes Bench!

Title Race Heats Up

With Arsenal’s loss to West Ham opening the door, a win today could push Liverpool 11 points clear at the top—but ending their nine-year league drought at the Etihad won’t be easy, even against a City side struggling for consistency this season.

Liverpool’s Starting XI

• Alisson remains in goal, protected by a back four of Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, and Robertson.

• Slot sticks with a four-man midfield, featuring Gravenberch, Szoboszlai, and Mac Allister, with Curtis Jones operating in an advanced role.

• Up front, Mohamed Salah (six goals in his last six games) and Luis Diaz complete the attack.

• Cody Gakpo returns from injury but starts on the bench, alongside attacking threats Diogo Jota, Darwin Nunez, and Federico Chiesa.

Big News from City: No Haaland!

Pep Guardiola has made four changes to his team, but the biggest shock is that Erling Haaland is not in the squad. Instead, City will rely on Phil Foden, Jeremy Doku, and Savinho in attack.Can Liverpool seize this golden opportunity and take a giant step toward the title? Kickoff is approaching!
