Predicted Lineups

Sports Mole looks at how a COVID-hit Liverpool could line up for Sunday's FA Cup third round clash with League One side Shrewsbury Town at Anfield.

We said: Liverpool 3-0 Shrewsbury Town

The exact scale of Liverpool's COVID outbreak, and which players have been affected, remains uncertain, but it could be the case that an in-form Shrewsbury side never have a better chance to pick up a first-ever win at Anfield. Despite that, we are still expecting Liverpool to progress through to the fourth round relatively comfortably. The visitors do not score many goals and even a second-string Liverpool side should have enough to see off League One opposition. Read more.
