Liverpool v Accrington Stanley Confirmed Lineups

Liverpool take on Accrington Stanley in the FA Cup third round at Anfield on Saturday.

Coach Arne Slot’s side will be looking to get back to winning ways after a disappointing 1-0 defeat to Tottenham in the first leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final on Wednesday.

The Dutch coach has made a number of changes to the team that started against Ange Postecoglou’s side in midweek, with the big news that youngster Rio Ngumoha is making his first start for the Reds.

Alisson Becker, Ibrahima Konate, Virgil van Dijk, Ryan Gravenberch, Curtis Jones, Mohamed Salah and Cody Gakpo have all been rested.

Access go into the game 19th in League Two, with 25 points from 23 games so far, and just above the drop zone.

Manager John Doolan, however, will want his side to make the most of the opportunity and attempt to cause one of the biggest upsets in FA Cup history against a much-changed Reds side.
