Liverpool predicted line-up vs Man Utd as Roberto Firmino and two ... (Mirror.co.uk)

Roberto Firmino may be disappointed if he was hoping to start against Manchester United in the Premier League after news broke that he will leave Liverpool ...

Gakpo scored twice for the Reds in February but is yet to fully convince, so he may have to settle for a spot on the bench. Liverpool left it late but defeated the Midlands club 2-0 with a back four of [Trent Alexander-Arnold](https://www.mirror.co.uk/all-about/trent-alexander-arnold), Ibrahima Konate, Virgil van Dijk and Kostas Tsimikas. Although Firmino has dominated headlines in recent days, Klopp is likely to hand Jota another start. Darwin Nunez has shone on the left wing recently, drawing praise from his manager, and is likely to start against the Red Devils, having missed last August's 2-1 defeat by United due to suspension. [Firmino](https://www.mirror.co.uk/all-about/roberto-firmino) will receive a fitting send-off as a Liverpool legend later this season - but there is no room for sentimentality as United visit Anfield. In midfield, there could also be one change, with club captain

Liverpool line-ups for Manchester United as Cody Gakpo and ... (Liverpool Echo)

Midfield also sees one player come in, with Jordan Henderson replacing Harvey Elliott. Fabinho stays as the anchor, with Stefan Bajcetic providing energy. And ...

The Reds skipper will be paramount in the quest of quelling Marcus Rashford's impact on the game and will line up alongside Bajcetic and Fabinho. In defence, Alisson keeps his place between the sticks while Ibrahima Konate and Virgil van Dijk set their stall out in front of the Brazilian as the pair are rewarded for a commanding display against Wolverhampton Wanderers last time out. While Cody Gakpo will offer Klopp's men a more robust presence down the middle as he goes up against Lisandro Martinez and Raphael Varane. Having named a relatively young partnership of Harvey Elliott and Stefan Bajcetic in mid-week, the arrival of Erik ten Hag's side on Merseyside is the suitable time to welcome Jordan Henderson back into the XI. It was a bold call from Klopp to name teenagers Harvey Elliott and Stefan Bajcetic either side of Fabinho in midweek but it worked. Ibrahima Konate needs a sustained run in the team now after his recent return to fitness. Kostas Tsimikas did really well in midweek, but it would be a surprise if he kept his place ahead of Andy Robertson. If he has another 70 minutes in him, I'm naming the Portugal international alongside Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah. Midfield, as is always the case, is the big dilemma for Klopp. The weekend's results could hardly have gone better for Liverpool so far. The big question is who makes that third spot? One would be at left-back, where Andy Robertson returns.

Liverpool vs. Manchester United starting XI, lineups: Gakpo, Nunez ... (CBSSports.com)

With lots of attacking options for Liverpool, Jurgen Klopp needs a cohesive unit that will also defend from the front.

Jota, has played all over the front three and learned to accommodate Mane floating inside, so his presence allows a freer usage of space for Nunez while also adding another creative attacker to help feed Mohamed Salah. It's a twofold issue as Liverpool have allowed teams to play through the center of the pitch, which is something that their press has prevented in past seasons but when they mix it up and try to sit deep they also lose what they're good at, still allowing goals. Don't look now but Liverpool have slowly crept back into the race for a Champions League place after a dismal start to the season.
