    LIVERPOOL TEAM NEWS – NO SALAH OR ROBERTSON

    Team to play Everton: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Van Dijk, Milner, Keita, Fabinho, Henderson, Minamino, Firmino, Mane.

    Subs: Adrian, Wijnaldum, Lovren, Salah, Gomez, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Origi, Elliott, Williams.

    • Liverpool make their long awaited return to playing football and the long awaited chance to claim their first Premier League title.

      Salah doesn’t start but is on the bench with Robertson missing from the squad. Milner looks likely to start in place of Robertson in a back four with Matip partnering Van Dijk and Allisson is back too having missed the last few games before the break with injury.

      With Salah on the bench, Minamino starts as does Keita too alongside Fabinho and Henderson. It looks like a 4-4-2 with Mane and Firmino up front but Liverpool often are a bit more fluid with their formation.

      With 5 subs allowed now, Liverpool have quite a strong bench. Lovren and Gomez offer defensive options, Gini & Ox midfield options and Origi & Salah striking options. There is also a place on the bench for youngsters Elliot and Williams too as part of a 9-man bench due to the changes to Substitution rules after such a long break and ‘short’ time to prepare for the restart…

      Liverpool need just 2 wins to clinch the title (with the way things stand right now) and restart with a tough away fixture in the Merseyside Derby.

      Looking forward to seeing Minamino and Keita – particularly Minamino who hasn’t had much opportunity since joining in January and Keita hasn’t yet lived up to his potential with a succession of injuries.

      Come on you REDS!!! YNWA
