Latest Liverpool vs Sunderland team news
The focus will undoubtedly be on whether Salah plays on Wednesday, but unless Dominik Szoboszlai shows signs of fatigue, Slot is unlikely to disrupt the current attacking synergy.
Gakpo, Isak, and Florian Wirtz – who had an excellent performance against West Ham – are likely to retain their places. However, Milos Kerkez and Joe Gomez may have to give up their positions on the flanks, as Gomez is unlikely to start two consecutive games in such a short period.
Giovanni Leoni (torn anterior cruciate ligament), Conor Bradley (unspecified injury), and Jeremie Frimpong (hamstring) are expected to remain absent. Therefore, Slot – who has always emphasized the need to protect Gomez – may bring Curtis Jones back to right-back.
For Sunderland, Aji Alese (shoulder) and Habib Diarra (groin) are ineligible to play, but otherwise the team has a fairly full squad for the away match.
Brobbey's goal last weekend means he's been involved in three goals in his last five Premier League games. This could help the 23-year-old striker impress and earn his first start of the season.
Brobbey could lead the attack in Sunderland's changed formation, and Lutsharel Geertruida could be used instead of Chemsdine Talbi if Le Bris wants to strengthen their defense.

Latest football match prediction: Liverpool vs Sunderland
Aided by one of the most senseless red cards ever shown to Lucas Paqueta, Liverpool avoided another slump in London, beating West Ham – a team that had been in good form – to end a run of three consecutive defeats.
Alexander Isak's first Premier League goal for Liverpool – ending his longest seven-game goalless streak in the league – opened the scoring, before Cody Gakpo sealed the victory late in the game. Manager Arne Slot, under considerable pressure, was rewarded for his bold team selection.
Mohamed Salah was on the bench for the entire recent win, and Liverpool's strong performance without him has led many to believe that the time of one of the club's greatest legends may be coming to an end. However, Slot insists the Egyptian star still has a crucial role to play.
Whether Salah starts or not, Liverpool are striving to break into the European qualification spots. With 21 points, the reigning champions are in eighth place, just three points behind Chelsea (third) and four points behind Manchester City (second).
Liverpool have also won their last 12 Premier League matches at Anfield against newly promoted teams, although Sunderland this season don't resemble typical newly promoted teams.
Regis Le Bris and his players made history for Sunderland last weekend. For the first time in their history – after 188 matches – they came from a 0-2 deficit to win a Premier League game.
Amine Adli opened the scoring for Bournemouth, and a superb strike from Tyler Adams gave the visitors a 2-0 lead at the Stadium of Light. But goals from Enzo Le Fee, Bertrand Traore, and "super substitute" Brian Brobbey staged a classic comeback for Sunderland.
Thanks to ending their three-match winless streak, Sunderland are now sixth, ahead of Manchester United, Liverpool, Tottenham and Newcastle United, and only behind Brighton (fifth) on goal difference.
However, Sunderland travel to Anfield with the second-worst away attack in the league, having scored only three goals on the road. On the other hand, they are one of the three teams with the fewest goals conceded away this season (6).
Furthermore, Sunderland have never beaten Liverpool at Anfield in the Premier League – the last time they left with three points was in 1983. Their most recent encounter was also nearly nine years ago, ending in a 2-2 draw in January 2017.
