Liverpool’s hunt for a quadruple will be put to the test as they go toe-to-toe with Chelsea in the FA Cup final.
The Reds reigned supreme over Thomas Tuchel’s side in the Carabao Cup final just a few short months ago, with Kepa Arrizabalaga spurning the 22nd spot-kick of the penalty shootout to spark scenes of jubilation in the red end at Wembley.
Jurgen Klopp’s side have stuttered in their pursuit of the Premier League title after a 1-1 draw with Tottenham last weekend but, with a Champions League final showdown with Real Madrid at the end of this month, they will be keen to continue their momentum.
Here’s how the Reds could line up.
Alisson (GK) – His superhero abilities in one-on-one situations could prove vital against a pacey Chelsea forward line.
Trent Alexander-Arnold (RB) – One swing of his right boot is usually fatal for teams who offer him space.
Ibrahima Konate (CB) – Headed Liverpool ahead against Man City in the semi-finals on his last trip to Wembley.
Virgil van Dijk (CB) – Looking to make it a hat-trick of domestic trophies during his time at Liverpool.
Andy Robertson (LB) – Chelsea will need to be wary of his ability to attack the back post from crosses.
Fabinho (CM) – His effectiveness in breaking up opposition attacks, whether legally or otherwise, is a huge weapon for Liverpool.
Thiago Alcantara (CM) – People doubted whether he’d be a success in a Klopp side but, after a difficult adaptation period, he has finally found his feet.
Naby Keita (CM) – Tends to reserve his best performances for these big occasions at Liverpool.
Mohamed Salah (RW) – His 30 Premier League goals this term means he’s a shoo-in to be given the nod by Klopp in attack.
Sadio Mane (ST) – Operates as a central striker nowadays, producing a Man of the Match display in the semi-final against Man City.
Luis Diaz (LW) – Has made an incredible impact since arriving from Porto, preserving Liverpool’s formidable home record with his equaliser against Tottenham last time out.
