Liverpool head coach Arne Slot has confirmed that Alexander Isak is back in the fold for the Reds after injury, but he won’t be starting against Manchester City. He will be out for a bit longer.

It is important that Reds fans don’t expect too much from the Swede between now and the end of the season, but if he can contribute positively in cameo roles, including against City, it will feel like a big bonus before he enjoys a proper pre-season. As for Liverpool’s starting lineup to face City, it will be interesting to see who Slot goes with, with Joe Gomez or Dominik Szoboszlai filling in at right-back in the absence of Jeremie Frimpong and Conor Bradley.

That’s if Gomez starts at right-back and Szoboszlai is used in his preferred No.10 berth, which arguably feels best, considering the Hungarian has been Liverpool’s Player of the Year. He is also a main contributor for This Is Anfield, one of the world's biggest Reds-related sites, where he writes features and news, and covers matchday content.
