Jurgen mentioned something about the 11 day break giving Matip time to fully recover, so I reckon he'll sit this one out too with Fabinho at centre half again, which would give an opportunity to Shaqiri again or Keita.

 

While Shaq has had some very good games where he's started, he's been quiet in the last few. Still think his most effective role is as a brilliant impact sub in tight games against tired defences.

Yes, I was wondering the same.... whether Fab stays in the back 4, we use Shaq from the bench... and give this Leipzig lad a start to show us something.

Probably true.  I think the plan will be to give Matip some game time if possible.

Id have Keita in over Shaqiri as well.
