Liverpool’s anticipated lineup against PSV Eindhoven features four changes as Arne Slot introduces a new midfield.

 

Expected lineup: Arne Slot implements four alterations as a Liverpool player makes his first Champions League appearance since September.

 

Liverpool’s formation for the Champions League match against PSV (4-3-3)

 

Tonight, Liverpool hosts PSV Eindhoven at Anfield for a Champions League encounter.

 

The current Premier League champions are experiencing a troubling phase, yet they are hopeful that the Champions League can provide a break from their domestic struggles.

 

Over the weekend, Arne Slot’s team reached a new low, being physically overpowered, outperformed, and outclassed by Nottingham Forest, who are fighting against relegation, in a heavy 3-0 loss.

 

Having suffered a similar defeat to Manchester City prior to the international break, Liverpool has equaled a dismal record set sixty years ago.

 

This marks the first occasion since the Bill Shankly era in April 1965 that the Reds have lost two consecutive league matches by three or more goals.

 

Slot has also become the first manager in 72 years to oversee five straight Premier League losses, raising questions about his long-term position at the club.

 

The atmosphere in the Liverpool dressing room is at its lowest point, but Slot will be hopeful that his team can regain their footing against their Eredivisie rivals.

 

Potential Liverpool lineup

 

As Liverpool approaches Wednesday’s Champions League match against PSV, they are in search of consistency, and Slot’s most significant decisions may be defensive before he addresses his struggling offense.

 

Alisson is set to make his third Champions League appearance of the season and his first since September, although his return did not significantly impact the game against Forest.

 

Curtis Jones shone for Liverpool during the defeat to Forest and should be rewarded by continuing his role alongside Ryan Gravenberch and Alexis Mac Allister in midfield.

 

After a disappointing start as a British transfer record signing in over a century, Alexander Isak is expected to be benched in favor of Hugo Ekitike.

 

Mohammed Salah and Cody Gakpo will accompany the Frenchman in the offensive line.

 

Expected Liverpool starting XI

(4-3-3): Alisson; Szoboszlai, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Jones, Gravenberch, Mac Allister; Salah, Ekitike, Gakpo.
