Liverpool line-up that fans want Jurgen Klopp to name for Inter Milan clash

Liverpool are looking to progress to the quarter-final of the Champions League when they face Inter Milan this evening.

The Reds take on the Serie A champions in the second leg of their last-16 tie at Anfield, with a 2-0 advantage from the first leg.

Goals from Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino secured the victory at the San Siro three weeks ago for Liverpool.

Jurgen Klopp will receive a welcome boost with three players returning to training in recent days.

Thiago Alcantara, Joel Matip and Firmino have all returned to full fitness, and will be in contention to play a part against Inter this evening.

Whether any of the trio start the contest is another matter, with Klopp being able to utilise five substitutions should he choose to do so.

Here at the ECHO, we have given Reds fans the chance to pick their Liverpool team that they would send out to get the job done against Inter.

In the most popular line-up picked by fans, both Thiago and Matip are both tipped to go straight into the team following their respective lay-offs.

*Pick your LFC team for tomorrow:

Alisson Becker is the unsurprising selection between the posts, with Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andy Robertson selected as the two full-backs.

Virgil van Dijk has been picked by Liverpool fans alongside Matip to be the two centre-backs to face Inter.

Into midfield and, along with Thiago, fans have selected Fabinho and Jordan Henderson to go with an experienced trio.

The front three sees Luis Diaz included in the preferred fans’ line-up, along with Salah and Diogo Jota.
