Pressure on Salah captainers as Lovren returns on Liverpool bench

All eyes turn to Anfield today as Liverpool host Burnley in the noon kick-off.

There will significant attention on Gameweek 30’s most-captained player Mohamed Salah (£13.4m), who has blanked five times in his last six Premier League outings.

With armband rival Sergio Aguero (£11.9m) registering just an assist for Manchester City on Saturday, there is an opportunity for the Egyptian to help his backers make up some ground.

They will be hoping for something like Raheem Sterling‘s (£11.4m) hat-trick against Watford, which has already set the bar for success in Gameweek 30 very high.

Salah will today operate alongside usual attacking colleagues Sadio Mané (£9.8m) and Roberto Firmino (£9.2m).

Adam Lallana (£6.9m) comes into central midfield for a first start since Gameweek 25 to sit between Fabinho (£5.5m) and Georginio Wijnaldum (£5.5m).

Virgil van Dijk (£6.6m) and Joel Matip (£4.9m) are once again the central defensive pairing but there is a welcome return on the bench for Dejan Lovren (£4.9m).

Meanwhile, as expected, it’s Andrew Robertson (£6.9m) and Trent Alexander-Arnold (£5.5m) at full-back.

Burnley have rolled out the usual 4-4-2 formation with the in-form Ashley Barnes (£5.7m) and Chris Wood (£6.2m) hoping to stop Liverpool earning an 18th clean sheet of the season.

Liverpool XI: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Van Dijk, Robertson, Fabinho, Wijnaldum, Lallana, Mane, Salah, Firmino.

Burnley XI: Heaton; Taylor, Mee, Tarkowski, Bardsley; McNeil, Westwood, Cork, Hendrick; Wood, Barnes.
