Liverpool Predicted Lineup vs Ipswich – Premier League

Liverpool are set to host Ipswich Town at Anfield this Saturday in a Premier League clash. With a six-point lead at the top of the table, the Reds are looking to extend their advantage over their rivals. Despite some challenges earlier in the year, Liverpool has bounced back with a string of victories and now hopes to continue their solid form this weekend. However, the Reds will be missing some key players due to injury, including Diogo Jota, Curtis Jones, and Joe Gomez.

Liverpool’s Recent Form and Domestic Lead

Liverpool’s performance in the Premier League has been impressive despite not being as dominant as they were in the first half of the season. Their recent wins against Brentford and Lille have helped maintain their position at the top of the table. With Arne Slot’s side having solidified their Champions League position, they now turn their focus to domestic matters. They will be looking to secure another victory as they face Ipswich Town, who are currently struggling in the relegation zone.

Liverpool’s Predicted Starting XI

Goalkeeper

Alisson Becker
Alisson will continue between the sticks after being instrumental in keeping Liverpool competitive against Brentford with crucial saves. He will be looking to add another clean sheet against Ipswich.

Defenders

Right-Back: Trent Alexander-Arnold
Trent Alexander-Arnold is expected to return to the starting lineup after a rest in midweek. His ability to create chances from deep will be key against Ipswich’s porous defense.

Center-Back: Ibrahima Konaté
Konaté has not been at his best since returning from injury but will be aiming for a solid performance against a low-scoring Ipswich side.

Center-Back: Virgil van Dijk
The captain will be tasked with leading the defense against Ipswich’s Liam Delap. Van Dijk remains crucial for Liverpool, and his leadership will be vital in this matchup.

Left-Back: Andy Robertson
Robertson, while not at his usual level this season, will need to be sharp to contain Ipswich’s dangerous winger, Omari Hutchinson.

Midfielders

Defensive Midfield: Ryan Gravenberch
Gravenberch has been a surprise standout in Liverpool’s midfield this season. Having been rested midweek, he will be ready to play a significant role in breaking up Ipswich’s midfield play.

Defensive Midfield: Alexis Mac Allister
Mac Allister, who has been a key part of Liverpool’s midfield, should play a critical role in dictating play and unlocking Ipswich’s defense.

Attackers

Right Wing: Mohamed Salah
Salah will continue to be Liverpool’s biggest threat in attack, having scored his 22nd goal of the season last week. His form is excellent, and he’ll be aiming for another goal against Ipswich.

Attacking Midfield: Dominik Szoboszlai
Szoboszlai has made an impression in the attacking midfield role and is expected to start in this match. With Curtis Jones sidelined, Szoboszlai will look to take control of the creative duties.

Left Wing: Cody Gakpo
Gakpo, who has been slightly out of form, will be looking to rediscover his rhythm this weekend. He will start on the left wing against Ipswich.

Striker: Luis Díaz
With Diogo Jota sidelined, Luis Díaz is set to play a central role in attack. Díaz will be key in Liverpool’s search for goals against Ipswich.
