Ryan Gravenberch and Alexis Mac Allister play as the holding midfielders, whilst Dominik Szoboszlai plays as an attacking midfielder. Luis Diaz and Mohamed Salah are wingers, with Diogo Jota impressing at centre-forward this season.
Liverpool Injuries and Absentees to Consider Vs AC Milan
Harvey Elliott fractured his foot whilst training for England’s U21s, and will be out for at least a month. However, Szoboszlai has firmly held his starting position, so this shouldn’t be too great of a loss.
Alisson is a big doubt for this match, though there is some potential for him to still start. Caoimhin Kelleher would be the replacement.
