Salah begins with nine changes in the confirmed Liverpool lineup over Union SG.
Trent Alexander-Arnold is starting Liverpool’s second Europa League match after Jurgen Klopp made nine changes.
It is fantastic to be back at Anfield for the first-ever match with Belgian side Union SG after an intense and contentious loss at Spurs given the circumstances on Saturday.
Klopp has once more tried to exploit his squad depth with another crucial Premier League away game at Brighton on Sunday, but vital players are still there.
Alisson is still in goal while Caoimhin Kelleher is out due to needing stitches on his knee.
After coming off the bench at Tottenham due to an injury, Alexander-Arnold starts at right-back with Ibrahima Konate, Jarell Quansah, and Kostas Tsimikas rounding out the backline.
Wataru Endo will play the No. 6 midfield position, and the more advanced midfielders Harvey Elliott and Ryan Gravenberch will be by his side.
Diogo Jota starts in the forward line with Mohamed Salah due to a domestic suspension this weekend, while Darwin Nunez is back up front.
With Virgil van Dijk, Dominik Szoboszlai, and Luis Diaz listed as substitutes, Klopp’s substitutions guarantee that he still has a strong bench to draw from if and when they are needed.
