Liverpool's anticipated lineup for the blockbuster clash against Manchester City sees Andoni Iraola making adjustments in attack, with Bradley Barcola set to play as the centre-forward and Victor Munoz and Rio Ngumoa starting on the wings.

This Sunday, Liverpool take on Manchester City at Anfield. Due to injury concerns, manager Andoni Iraola is preparing changes to the starting eleven.

Alisson is set to return in goal after receiving a well-deserved rest during the international break. On the right side of defence, Ronald Araujo is expected to slot in, having firmly established himself ahead of Jeremy Frimpong.

In central defence, the captain Virgil van Dijk will be joined by Jeremy Jacquet, who is back from a minor injury. On the left, Miloš Kerkes is likely to be preferred over Kostas Tsimikas, who will start on the bench.

In the midfield, Iraola may opt for a cautious approach with Ryan Gravenberch and Alexis Mac Allister forming a partnership. Ahead of them, Dominik Szoboszlai is anticipated to play, leaving Florian Wirtz to start on the bench.

On the flanks, young talents Victor Munoz and Rio Ngumoa will come into the lineup to replace the injured Cody Gakpo and Alexander Isak.

Leading the line, Bradley Barcola is expected to take the central striker role. Hugo Ekitike is also sidelined, prompting the manager to favour the Frenchman over the younger Lewis Kumas.
