Liverpool Vs Huddersfield Dream11 Team
Formations: 4-4-2
GOALKEEPER
Alisson Becker: Alisson Becker has the highest cleansheet in the league with 19 this season. The Brazilian is one of the main reasons for defensive stability at the back and looks to maintain that stance against Huddersfield. The visitors have scored just 20 goals this season which enhances Liverpool’s chances of shutting down Huddersfield.
DEFENDERS
Christopher Schindler: Christopher Schindler has played 34 games this season. He is an integral part of the first team setup, scoring once throughout the campaign. The chances of keeping a clean sheet are minimal, but he could get his name on the score sheet if they get a proper chance from the set pieces.
Virgil Van Dijk: Virgil Van Dijk has been awarded the PFA Player of the year for producing consistent displays over the last year. The Dutch International is the heartbeat of Liverpool’s defense and has the capability to find the back of the net from set pieces. He has three goals and two assists to his name this term.
Terence Kongolo: Terence Kongolo is another player cementing his place in the starting lineup. The Dutch International operates either as a centre-back or left-back and is comfortable with his feet to link up with the attackers. He has one goal and one assist to his name.
Andy Robertson: Andy Robertson is one of the major creators for Liverpool. The Scottish International has registered nine assists this season and that is down to the fact that he loves to bomb forward to link up with the attackers.
MIDFIELDERS
Jonathan Hogg: Jonathan Hogg likes to sit back with the defense and dictate the play from the back. He wins plenty of duels in the midfield and picks out the full-backs with diagonal balls. He has been Huddersfield’s best midfielder this season.
Naby Keita: Naby Keita has slowly found his mojo at Liverpool after getting a run of games lately. The Guinean International operates much forward in the midfield department and scored twice against Southampton and Porto within three days. Besides, he has the ability to pick out the passes.
Juninho Bacuna: Initially it took time for Juninho Bacuna to force into the starting lineup, but he has been a major starter currently. The Dutch International operates as a box to box midfielder and does the defensive job mostly to shut down the opponents.
Sadio Mane (VC): Sadio Mane has been the best performer for Liverpool since the turn of the New Year. The Senegalese International is currently scoring goals for fun, having found the back of the net 14 times this year alone. With Firmino dropping deep, Mane is utilized as a striker by Jurgen Klopp.
FORWARDS
Mohamed Salah (C): Mohamed Salah went through a rough patch, but he has bounced back well by scoring twice in the last three games. The Egyptian International did not score against Cardiff, but he won the penalty which eased pressure on Liverpool to secure all three points. He will have time and space to exploit the backline of Huddersfield.
Roberto Firmino: Roberto Firmino has scored twice in the last three games against the Friday opponents. The Brazilian International is operating behind Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah. Firmino is the main player to link up the forwards and midfielders. He has scored 12 goals and has six assists.
