CM – Georginio Wijnaldum
With Henderson ruled out for a while, the Dutchman will be donning the captain’s armband for Liverpool. Wijnaldum scored the winner when the Reds played Sheffield at Bramall Lane last season and he’ll be keen on aiding the team defensively and offensively on Sunday.
CM – Naby Keita
The final midfield spot is a tricky one but the Guinean international makes the cut just ahead of Curtis Jones. Keita will make his first start of 2021 and will be expected to put in a strong performance in the middle of the part. It will really be interesting to see how this trio works on the pitch this weekend. However, it won’t be much of a surprise if Klopp opts for Jones ahead of Keita.
