Liverpool XI vs Real Madrid: Predicted lineup, confirmed team news and injuries for Champions League today


Reds sit top of the pile in Europe ahead of the visit of the champions

Liverpool will have Trent Alexander-Arnold available for tonight’s Champions League showdown with Real Madrid.

The defender was forced off during the win over Aston Villa before the international break and subsequently pulled out of the England squad with a hamstring injury.

Alexander-Arnold then missed the 3-2 win over Southampton in the Premier League on Sunday after Slot had claimed the right-back could return “in between” the meeting with Madrid and Sunday’s League clash with Manchester City.

However, Alexander-Arnold trained with the Liverpool squad on Tuesday, stepping up his efforts to prove his fitness ahead of the Spanish giants’ visit. Slot confirmed the defender would be in the squad, albeit is unlikely to start.

None of Alisson Becker, Diogo Jota or Federico Chiesa will return for the visit of the European champions.

Alexis Mac Allister and Luis Diaz could come back into the starting lineup after starting on the bench against Saints, while Kostas Tsimikas is out with an ankle injury.

Liverpool predicted XI: Kelleher; Bradley, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Gravenberch, Mac Allister; Salah, Szoboszlai, Diaz; Nunez

Injured: Alisson, Jota, Chiesa, Tsimikas

Time and date: 8pm GMT tonight on Wednesday 27 November 2024

Venue: Anfield

TV channel and live stream: TNT Sports

While results are never the main focus in pre-season, the Gunners have suffered back-to-back losses so returning to winning ways could provide a welcome confidence boost ahead of the trip to Old Trafford . Team news reminder Here is how both teams will line-up today. Arsenal XI:   Raya , Timber , Saliba , Gabriel , Calafiori , Zubimendi , Rice , Odegaard (C), Saka , Gyoker...

Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal take on Premier League opposition as they embark on their second match of their pre-season tour of Asia.
