The atmosphere should be buzzing tonight, but I expect a rather dull match. The final 28 minutes vs. City were pretty electric with Salah and Sadio making it fun. But I suspect everyone will be exhausted, the sun will be hot in late afternoon, the pitch will be narrow as it usually is in American football stadiums and of course we're playing one of the more negative teams about, so...I'm not expecting much in the way of entertainment (or maybe this is me being defensive since I couldn't go to a match so close).
Thinking about lineups, as the geek in me tends to do, maybe it will be something like:
1st Half
Grabara
Camacho Gomez, Virgil, Robbo
Fab, Milner, Lallana
Salah, Sturridge, Mane
2nd Half (or final 30 minutes)
Kelleher
Gomez, Phillips, Klavan, Moreno
Chirivella, Woodburn, Grujic
Jones, Solanke, Shaquiri
You could see Chirivella in the back line, with Jones back in midfield and Markovic, Origi or Ojo up front as well.
