Liverpool Predicted XI: We predict Jurgen Klopp’s starting XI as Liverpool host Sheffield United in the Premier League tonight

Defenders: The big news is that the Reds will have to do without Virgil van Dijk for quite some time after he suffered an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury against Everton due to Jordan Pickford’s questionable challenge. With only five clean sheets kept in their previous 23 matches, things were not exactly rosy defensively, but there’s no question that the Dutchman will be sorely missed. Added to that, Joel Matip missed set to miss the trip to Ajax after picking up an injury against Everton, meaning Joe Gomez is expected to partner Fabinho at the heart of the backline once again. In better news, star full-backs Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andrew Robertson will continue in their normal roles.
