Since Robo is out suspended, I expect to see Milner in his place. Gini, our most consistent midfielder, looked knackered on Friday and I agree with redshade, we should give him a rest. On the other hand, Hendo looked good in that slightly advanced midfield position, so I'd like us to try a full game with him there. This is what I'd go for:

            Alisson

Trent    Matip    VVD     Milner

            Fabinho
         Hendo   Keita

   Salah    Firmino   Mane

I can't see Porto Beating us at home. mind, you stranger things have happened.

Key tonight is obviously the clean sheet, MORE than scoring goals.

Im still going for a 3-0 though, we should have too much firepower for this lot.

Can't see any other lineup.

That's the team I'd go with as well, Hendo will be buzzing after coming off the bench and making an impact on Friday so I agree with throwing him in again. Naby didn't set the world alight against Southampton but he still scored a crucial goal and should have had a pen so even when stuck in second gear he can still cause teams problems.
As for Fabinho he'd be one of the first names down on the team sheet if I was manager.

You hit the nail spot on dude!

The only change is Lovren is starting in place of Matip...

Line Up:
Liverpool: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Lovren, Van Dijk, Milner, Fabinho, Henderson, Keita, Salah, Mane, Firmino.

Substitutes: Mignolet, Wijnaldum, Gomez, Sturridge, Shaqiri, Origi, Matip.

Strange decision to start with Lovren. Good to see Gomez on the bench though, hopefully he'll get a few minutes today if the result allows it.

No need to demolish these again, I'll be happy with a clean sheet and a good cushion so we don't have to worry too much in Portugal. 3-0 to us hopefully.

Keita 1-0

Nothing in ages then he gets 2 goals in a week 

Salah at left back? that's new 

Fair play for staying up but Salah should have went down there, would have been a straight red.

Bobby 2-0

Si Senor

Good save from Ali

wtf are the organisation at the back? Porto got 2~3 clear chances to score

Naby and Hendo are finding gaps all over the place and sliding nice balls through.. Both have been really effective so far.
