Goal-keeper
Kepa Arrizablaga (8.5 Cr) has managed to keep his team in contention in his recent matches with consistent contributions in front of his goal which will be tested to the limit against the strong opposition.
Defenders
Trent Alexander-Arnold (9.0 Cr) has managed to perform well in the recent games that earned him 2 important assists in the last 2 matches which makes him our prime choice for this encounter.
Andrew Robertson (7.5 Cr) can showcase amazing control on his attacking and defensive side of the game after he was able to create attacking chances followed by 3 tackles and 2 interceptions in the last match.
Joel Matip (6.5 Cr) has managed to create his chances as an important contributor in the absence of Van Dijk which was not seen in the last game but could keep him focused for this contest.
Thiago Silva (8.5 Cr) was incredible in his last match against Crystal Palace and has managed to perform with a responsible role as the center-back with brilliant control on the backline.
Midfielders
Thiago Alcantara (8.0 Cr) holds full control over his passing skills which have earned him impressive contributions throughout the season added with his ability to help the defensive side of the game.
Cody Gakpo (7.0 Cr) is an important player because of his ability to perform well in multiple positions which should keep him focused on finding his chances in this important contest.
Jorginho (7.5 Cr) was able to find several chances in the recent games but did not have a chance to convert which can motivate him to perform with great focus as he will also be on penalties for this match.
Mason Mount (7.0 Cr) was trying to score from a distance that has been practiced throughout the season and earned him an assist against Fulham which could raise confidence levels.
Forwards
Mohamed Salah (11 Cr) is the leading goal scorer from his team with 7 goals but has not scored in the last 3 games that could keep him focused on giving his all as our prime choice for this encounter.
Kai Havertz (9.5 Cr) added his 5th goal of the season in the last match and seems to be brewing momentum in the recent games which makes him a potential game-changer.
Captain And Vice-Captain
M.Salah is our captain because of his ability to help the team with his goal-scoring skills.
T.Alexander Arnold will be our vice-captain because of his ability to manage attack and defense to multiply his contributions.
