MC) Steven Gerrard
The club captain may be given more creative licence to get forward today, as Rodgers reshuffles the pack in the absence of Henderson. If Lucas plays Gerrard’s usual anchoring role, the skipper will be encouraged to get up and down the pitch more than he has been.
MC) Lucas
As mentioned, we expect Lucas to come in and anchor the side. He more than has the ability to perform this role, and prides himself on his tackling and interceptions.
MC) Joe Allen
With Daniel Sturridge injured, we reckon Coutinho will be pushed further forward into an attacking role, meaning Allen can come in and play his creative midfield position.
