MCI at LIV, 4-5-1. Donnarumma; Rúben, Guéhi, Gvardiol, Matheus N.; Anderson, Cherki, Enzo, Ndiaye, Semenyo; Haaland. Foden suspended. Semenyo 75% with an ankle problem but named. Haaland — owned by about 7 in 10 — plays at Anfield. He keeps the armband on minutes alone.

The calls. João Pedro: bench — knee injury, not in the expected XI, and a 6-in-10 ownership does not change the flag. Calafiori: start — named against Leeds at home. Rogers: start — named against Bournemouth at home. Those are the verdicts. Act on them.
