Having brought in a number of new faces, Liverpool will be hoping this XI can bring them their first win in five away games…

GK: Simon Mignolet

Liverpool’s undisputed number one, Simon Mignolet will surely start in goal for Rodgers’ side as he looks to do a great deal better than in the team’s last trip to Stoke.

DR: Nathaniel Clyne

One of several debutants, Nathaniel Clyne looks a good upgrade on Glen Johnson at right-back, and will certainly be first choice this season.

DL: Alberto Moreno

Recently linked with an exit, Alberto Moreno looks to be staying put at Anfield and will surely be the main left-back for the Reds this season.

DC: Martin Skrtel

A key defender and leader for Liverpool, Martin Skrtel is a familiar face who should be playing in most games this season.

DC: Mamadou Sakho

Impressive in pre-season, Mamadou Sakho has surely won the race to be Skrtel’s first choice defensive partner.

MC: Jordan Henderson

Liverpool’s new captain, Jordan Henderson will definitely be starting in midfield whenever fit, can he live up to the expectations of wearing the armband?

MC: James Milner

Likely to start in a central role, James Milner makes his debut for Liverpool after his summer move from Manchester City and could play a variety of roles this season.

AMR: Jordan Ibe

Tipped to replace Raheem Sterling, impressive youngster Jordan Ibe could be handed a start for Liverpool here after some fine pre-season performances.

AML: Philippe Coutinho

Wide on the left, but with a free role as last season, Philippe Coutinho will be the player the Reds look to to provide some spark.

AMC: Roberto Firmino

Another exciting Brazilian attacker, Roberto Firmino could start this game and give a glimpse of his talent, playing just behind the main striker.

FC: Christian Benteke

After scoring a cracker on his debut in a friendly, £32.5m new-boy Christian Benteke completes our Liverpool predicted line up in an exciting new-look attack.
