Liverpool travel to the San Siro on Tuesday night in the midst of a full-blown crisis.
Currently, Arne Slot’s side remain winless in their last three Premier League games. Moreover, they suffered a humiliating 4-1 defeat to PSV in their last European outing. Now, they must face Italian champions Inter Milan without their talisman, Mohamed Salah. Significantly, Slot left the Egyptian forward out of the squad after his explosive interview following the Leeds draw.
Consequently, the manager must find a way to galvanise his depleted squad against one of Europe’s best home teams. Despite the turmoil, however, Liverpool boast an excellent record at this stadium. In fact, they claimed victory on all four previous visits to face Inter or AC Milan. Therefore, a fifth victory would mark a massive statement of unity and resilience.

Notably, Arne Slot made the bold decision to leave Mohamed Salah out of the squad entirely. This follows the forward’s public criticism of the manager. In addition, injuries further deplete the attacking options since Cody Gakpo and Federico Chiesa remain unavailable. As a result, Hugo Ekitike and Alexander Isak will likely start in a revamped front line.
Meanwhile, Conor Bradley is available to start at right-back. Furthermore, Joe Gomez is pushing to replace Ibrahima Konaté in central defence due to the Frenchman’s recent struggles. In the middle, Ryan Gravenberch and Alexis Mac Allister expect to continue their partnership. Finally, youngsters like Trey Nyoni could appear on the bench because of the thin squad.
