Jurgen Klopp faces Fabinho’s decision as Liverpool consider the review forward

Liverpool extended their unbeaten streak to eight games, reaching the top of the Premier League with a win over Leicester City.

An own goal from Jonny Evans was followed by goals from Diogo Jota and Roberto Firmino as the Reds scored an impressive 3-0 on Sunday at Anfield.

The Premier League and world champions are now returning to the Champions League, where three points at home to Atalanta on Wednesday will guarantee a place in the knockout stage two days early.

And here we look forward to the changes Jurgen Klopp could make when his team is next in action.

Full-back rotation?

Liverpool aren’t exactly cut to the bone in defense, but options have become limited.

Virgil van Dijk, Joe Gomez and Trent Alexander-Arnold are out while Nat Phillips is not eligible for the Champions League.

With Joel Matip, James Milner and Fabinho unlikely to start three games in a week, Klopp faces some tough choices.

Either from Matip or Fabinho will likely be flipped to the bench, meaning teen Rhys Williams could make another Champions League start.

Andy Robertson must rest with Kostas Tsimikas waiting as left-back, while on the other flank Neco Williams impressed in a half-hour cameo against Leicester and could replace evergreen Milner.

Same for the engine room

In midfield, a lot could depend on whether Fabinho starts in defense and Jordan Henderson or Thiago Alcantara are fit.

Both have suffered from injuries and would be a surprise if one was involved.

Milner could come in to increase engine room as he did when he switched from right back after Naby Keita limped over the weekend.

But with Keita and Xherdan Shaqiri almost sure to lose and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain not ready, it’s likely that Gini Wjnaldum and Curtis Jones will be invited back after playing against Leicester.

Wrong returns

Mohamed Salah’s availability means the Liverpool top scorer is expected to return after contracting the coronavirus.

Liverpool could cover the lack of midfield availability by moving to 4-2-3-1.

However, Sadio Mane looked tired against Leicester and could be benched, while Takumi Minamino and Divock Origi patiently waited for another chance to start.

Minamino could replace Roberto Firmino, although Diogo Jota, the fit man, would certainly like to keep his post.
