Goal-keeper
Ederson Moraes (8.5 Cr) has been brilliant in important fixtures as seen in the Champions League which should allow him to fight hard for a clean sheet against this tough opposition.
Defenders
Joao Cancelo (9.5 Cr) will be playing right back in the absence of Walker which should allow him to regain his confidence in the prime position as he will aim to create counterattacking opportunities for his team.
Nathan Ake (8.5 Cr) will be an impressive addition to the squad and will be a huge motivator with excellent control during air battles which should keep him focused on this match.
Trent Alexander Arnold (9.5 Cr) is considered one of the best right-backs in the world with consistent attacking contributions added to his brilliant skills in the defense which makes him our prime choice.
Andy Robertson (9.0 Cr) has played an important role in the Champions League fixture along with his understanding of the opposition that could give him an edge to find assists in this match.
Midfielders
Bernardo Silva (9.0 Cr) was brilliant in the initial stages of the tournament and could soon fight back to regain his goal-scoring performance which could make him a crucial contributor in this contest.
Ilkay Gundogan (9.0 Cr) has been a responsible midfielder with fantastic understanding of the game and an impressive show of attacking thrust in the FA Cup which makes him a potential game-changer.
Sadio Mane (9.5 Cr) was able to show his fighting spirit to keep the team motivated with a goal in his last match against Manchester City that should be channeled into his performance for this match which makes him our prime choice.
Naby Keita (8.0 Cr) made his way back into the starting 11 after his injury which can allow him to showcase his several shots on target and passing accuracy that could improve his contributions in this fixture.
Forwards
Gabrial Jesus (9.0 Cr) is underrated considering his goal-scoring potential which should not stop him from making his presence known with his consistent shots on target which could convert into goals.
Mohamed Salah (10.5 Cr) was being silenced in his recent matches which could allow them to showcase his amazing form as witnessed throughout the season which makes him a crucial contributor.
