Liverpool vs Sheffield United. Possible line-ups and latest news
Tomorrow, April 4th, the English Premier League leader Liverpool will face the worst team in the league, Sheffield United. Dailysports has prepared the latest news on the match, as well as the probable lineups of the teams.
Liverpool, in the previous round, defeated Brighton (2-1) and managed to become the sole leader of the championship. On Sunday, Jurgen Klopp's team faces a tough and crucial away match at Old Trafford, but significant rotation from Liverpool is unlikely.
However, it is expected that Cody Gakpo will start instead of Darwin Nunez in the lineup. All other available team leaders are expected to start from the first minutes.
Jurgen Klopp still cannot count on Diogo Jota, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Alisson, Thiago Alcantara, Stefan Bajcetic, and Ben Doak.
Good news for Liverpool fans is the return of Curtis Jones and Andy Robertson to the squad. However, their inclusion in the starting lineup is unlikely.
As for Sheffield United, Chris Wilder's team has a whopping 9 players in the infirmary.
Particularly significant squad problems are with the defense line of the Premier League's underdogs, where George Baldock, Chris Basham, John Egan, Rhys Norrington-Davies, and Max Lowe are unavailable. In midfield, Tom Davies and Cameron Archer won't be able to play, while Rian Brewster and Daniel Jebbison will be absent in the attack.
