Goal-keeper
Alisson Becker (6.5 Cr) is an excellent performer in front of his goal with fantastic stats to back him with a total of 6 saves in his last match which will be tested to the limit in this contest.
Defenders
Lucas Digne (6.5 Cr) is one of the most consistent defenders from his team which could allow him to work hard under pressure added with his ability to create counter-attacking chances.
Tyrone Mings (7.5 Cr) works well as the anchor defender and can make his mark with consistency that could keep him focused on giving his all in this crucial contest.
Trent Alexander-Arnold (8.0 Cr) can work well from the backline which has earned him important chances along with his work to maintain defensive composure which could allow him to make his way back to starting 11.
Andrew Robertson (7.5 Cr) was brilliant in his last match ahead of the World Cup with his full-time appearance and will look to channel a stronger form that could help both attack and defense which should bring out the best in him.
Midfielders
Emiliano Buendia (6.5 Cr) scored an important goal in his first match against Everton but has since been silenced considering his momentum in front of the goal which should be retained in this match.
Doulas Luiz (8.5 Cr) was able to provide a crucial assist in his last match against Brighton but couldn’t find the necessary push to add a win which can raise confidence levels.
Fabio Carvalho (8.0 Cr) was an important performer and goal scorer in the last EFL Cup game which should allow this young talent to make the most of his current game time.
Thiago Alcantara (7.0 Cr) should be able to bring in a well-rested form after being omitted from the World Cup squad that could prove evident considering his amazing passing capabilities.
Forwards
Mohamed Salah (9.0 Cr) was able to score 2 goals in his match against Tottenham and played an essential role in the last EFL Cup game which should keep him fully focused on giving his all as our prime choice for this encounter.
Darwin Nunez (8.5 Cr) was able to maintain a strong momentum with 2 goals and 1 assist in his last 2 premier league games but failed to score any goals despite of amazing chances in the last EFL cup game.
Captain And Vice-Captain
M.Salah is our captain because of his goal-scoring potential.
A.Robertson is our vice-captain because of his ability to create consistent attacking and defensive contributions.
Dream11 Team
Allison, Digne, Mings, Robertson (VC), Alexander-Arnold, Luiz, Buendia, Alcantara, Carvalho, Salah (C), Nunez
