How Liverpool might line up in the Champions League encounter against Inter Milan (4-2-3-1)

 

Liverpool’s Champions League journey has been a tumultuous one thus far. One week, they were reveling in a cathartic win over their long-standing rivals, Real Madrid.

 

The following week, Anfield was left in shock as PSV Eindhoven dealt the Reds a 4-1 defeat – a result that equaled an unwanted record from nearly a century ago.

 

This marked Liverpool’s third home loss by three goals or more this season, a scenario not witnessed since 1929-30, leaving them in 13th place, just one point shy of the top eight.

 

There have been glimpses of Liverpool regaining their former glory. Following the historic loss to PSV, they have remained unbeaten in three matches. However, even this streak has its drawbacks.

 

A solid 2-0 victory at West Ham United suggested a possible revival, but that hope quickly diminished with disappointing draws against newly-promoted teams Sunderland and Leeds United.

 

Saturday’s six-goal thriller at Elland Road was a heartbreaker for Liverpool supporters as the Reds conceded a last-minute equalizer.

 

However, no one could have anticipated the events that unfolded later, as unused substitute Mohamed Salah made headlines with a remarkable outburst, claiming the club had “thrown him under the bus.”

 

Unsurprisingly, he has been excluded from the squad facing Inter, but whether Liverpool can move past the drama and secure a win at San Siro remains an entirely different question.

 

How Liverpool might line up

 

Salah’s exclusion has made headlines, but manager Arne Slot could still raise eyebrows as he implements four changes to the lineup that drew against Leeds.

 

Alisson barely justified his substantial salary over the weekend, which may open the door for Giorgio Mamardashvilli to demonstrate his ability to effectively replace the Brazilian.

 

Ibrahima Konate has faced criticism lately and might be replaced by Joe Gomez to partner with Virgil van Dijk in the center of defense.

 

However, an unexpected adjustment could see Hugo Ekitike moved to the left side in place of Cody Gakpo to make room for British record striker Alexander Isak.

 

Andrew Robertson is expected to take over from Milos Kerkez, while Conor Bradley is likely to keep his position at right back.

 

Ryan Gravenberch has established a new partnership with Curtis Jones in the midfield, and Dominik Szoboszlai along with Florian Wirtz are also anticipated to retain their spots.

 

Yet again, an unexpected adjustment could see Hugo Ekitike moved to the left side in place of Cody Gakpo to make room for British record striker Alexander Isak.

 

Predicted XI;

 

(4-2-3-1): Alisson; Bradley, Gomez, Van Dijk, Robertson; Gravenberch, Jones; Szoboszlai, Wirtz, Ekitike; Isak
