Midtjylland vs Liverpool

Hopefully that’s a name I won’t have to spell too many times again after today. Since we beat them earlier in the tournament they have hit a bit of form. They even managed an impressive 2-0 away win against Vejle BK at the weekend which gives you all some idea of just how good they can be on their day. Unfortunately for them, that day was a Saturday and they are playing Liverpool on Wednesday night.

Strangely this game gives us back to back games against the Wolves. Though these are posh Wolves with a mascot called Lupus. It seems to be all about carnivorous animals this week with Hat Mancock doing a very convincing impression of a crocodile on live television.

It’s difficult to predict the team though there are rumours that Matip and Jones didn’t train today and might be rested. We are still short of midfield players too and could do with the Ox getting some game time to help him back to full fitness, maybe as a sub though. Shaq is not ready for a start though again according to the rumours. I have assumed Klopp will play the players who have recently returned from injury such as TAA, Hendo and Keita at the start and maybe sub them later in the game. There should also be an opportunity for a couple of the youngsters like Koumetio and Clarkson to get their chance. One thing is for sure though whatever team is predicted it won’t be correct 😉

Team: Kellher, Williams, Williams, Williams, Williams, Koumetio, Tsimikas, Keita, Henderson, Clarkson, Jota, Origi, Mini.
