Bernardo

Well rested and “ready” for Anfield as claimed by Pep himself, he is a certain starter. An excellent attribute this mighty warrior possesses is the ability to play almost anywhere. With him on the right, potentially up against Robertson who is just back from injury, Silva could be a nightmare with his technical ability for the “best left-back in the werrrld” to contain.

Foden

Little Phil loves the big occasion! His performances so far this season are going under the radar however, with 9 G/A in 9 Premier League games. He’s caused problems at Anfield before; can he do it again?

Haaland

An excellent record so far for the new City striker, a rest midweek and keen to get his revenge after being mocked after defeat to Liverpool in the biggest trophy battle ever, the Community Shield. Can he make his way to breaking more records?
