Liverpool predicted line up for Old Trafford trip.

A look at a Liverpool predicted line up as the Reds travel to old rivals Manchester United for this Saturday’s late kickoff…

GK: Simon Mignolet

Liverpool’s undisputed number one, Simon Mignolet missed the game at Old Trafford last season but will be hoping to make up for it this year.

DR: Nathaniel Clyne

A fine summer signing from Southampton, Nathaniel Clyne should start at right-back for Liverpool against the club he nearly joined.

DL: Joe Gomez

A terrific young player who will have his first big test in this game, Joe Gomez is likely to feature for Liverpool again this weekend.

DC: Martin Skrtel

An experienced player who will be key for Liverpool in this big game, Martin Skrtel is almost a guaranteed starter every week for the Reds.

DC: Mamadou Sakho

With Dejan Lovren so poor against West Ham, Mamadou Sakho could come in alongside Skrtel in defence for this crucial fixture.

DM: Lucas Leiva

Despite nearly leaving Anfield in the summer, Lucas Leiva now looks to have a key role to play for this Liverpool side in the defensive midfield role.

MC: Emre Can

Another defensive-minded player, Emre Can could come in for Liverpool to help defend against United’s skillful attackers like Juan Mata and Memphis Depay.

MC: Jordan Henderson

Liverpool’s captain and midfield general, Jordan Henderson will have to be at his best in the midfield battle against the likes of Morgan Schneiderlin.

AMR: James Milner

Moving into a role on the right-hand side, James Milner should start as part of a five-man midfield at Old Trafford.

AML: Roberto Firmino

With Philippe Coutinho suspended, Roberto Firmino will be the player Liverpool look to for creativity in a free role from the left.

FC: Christian Benteke

The lone man up front, Christian Benteke concludes our Liverpool predicted line up as he looks to add to his one goal for the Reds so far.
