Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp will rotate his midfield once again as Liverpool head to the South coast to face Southampton in a huge Premier League clash in the title race.
Liverpool Football Club head to Southampton tomorrow for a crucial matchup in the Premier League title race. All eyes will be on Jurgen Klopp and the midfield he picks for the occasion.
These are joyous days to be a Liverpool fan; a sustained title challenge and European progress. However they are also nervy days. The possibility of glory is just around the corner but also the fear of falling just short and having no trophy to show for a spectacular season.

No place sees these nerves more than Twitter an hour before kick-off. There is an inevitable meltdown about the midfield the manager has picked and which of your favorites he really should have started.
Last week was no different. You would think a big win against Tottenham Hotspur would instill a confidence in the fans that the manger will get it right on Friday. That would be too sensible.
We all have a preferred midfield – mine is Gini Wijnaldum, Fabinho and Naby Keita – but the boss cares not one bit about what we want to see. He is about getting the win.
There is often a surprise inclusion. Perhaps that’s one reason Liverpool have had an edge on opponents this year – they don’t know what the balance or personnel of the Liverpool midfield will be.
It is a fool’s errand to second guess what Klopp will do tomorrow but what else are we going to do? The Reds are all we can think about at the moment. So here is our best guess at the midfield trio to lineup against Southampton in the Premier League.
