Liverpool XI vs Sunderland: Predicted lineup, confirmed team news, injury latest for Premier League today
Florian Wirtz and Alexander Isak are expected to be rested as Mohamed Salah returns for Liverpool
Mohamed Salah is expected to reclaim his place in Liverpool’s forward line when Sunderland visit Anfield tonight,
The Egyptian – due to leave for the Africa Cup of Nations on December 15 – was left on the bench as the Premier League champions arrested their dismal run of form with a win over West Ham at the weekend with Dominik Szoboszlai preferred on the right flank.
But as Arne Slot continues to manage Florian Wirtz’s minutes, a front-line shuffle is expected as the Reds return to action.
Speaking pre-match, Slot said Wirtz, Alexander Isak, and Joe Gomez would not be able to play three full matches in the space of a week. After the trio all started at the London Stadium, they could be rotated for Wednesday.
Should Wirtz drop out of the XI, Szoboszlai should return to his usual midfield role thus opening the door for Salah to take up his place on the right. If Isak follows Wirtz in returning to the bench, Hugo Ekitike will lead the line.
Gomez will be unlikely to start after completing the full 90 minutes at West Ham, and so may be rested for Curtis Jones, who has recently been operating at right-back.
Elsewhere, the line-up rather picks itself. The go-to midfield pairing of Alexis Mac Allister and Ryan Gravenberch will be supported by Szoboszlai, while the rest of the backline should remain unchanged.
Conor Bradley has returned to training for the first time since suffering a muscle injury on international duty in November, but is not expected to be fit before Liverpool visit Leeds at the weekend.
Jeremie Frimpong is yet to return to the first-team fold as he continues his recovery from a hamstring injury, and Giovanni Leoni remains in recovery after undergoing surgery on a torn ACL.
Predicted Liverpool XI (4-2-3-1): Alisson; Jones, Konate, Van Dijk, Kerkez; Mac Allister, Gravenberch; Salah, Szoboszlai, Gakpo; Ekitike.
Injured: Bradley, Frimpong, Leoni
Time and date: 8.15pm GMT on Wednesday December 3, 2025
Venue: Anfield
