Mohamed Salah will feature in his last-ever Merseyside derby for Liverpool today, marking a significant moment in his farewell tour with the club. This appearance comes after he was initially benched but brought on earlier than expected in a recent match due to an injury to teammate Hugo Ekitike, who is now out for the season.
Manager Arne Slot has adjusted the squad due to ongoing injuries. Joe Gomez is unavailable, leading to Dominik Szoboszlai shifting to right-back. Goalkeeper Alisson Becker will miss his sixth consecutive game, giving Giorgi Mamardashvili his first taste of a Merseyside derby.
Curtis Jones, who was sent off in the last derby at Goodison Park, starts in midfield alongside Ryan Gravenberch. The forward line is led by Alexander Isak, with Salah on the right wing. Liverpool's XI includes Mamardashvili; Szoboszlai, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Gravenberch, Jones; Salah, Wirtz, Gakpo; and Isak.
