Antonin Kinsky will likely remain in goal, with Jan Paul van Hecke continuing at centre-back. Marcos Senesi could partner him, allowing Micky Van de Ven a rest. With Porro out, the £30m-rated Archie Gray is expected to play at right-back, while Andrew Robertson will feature on the left flank against his former club.
Sandro Tonali and Mateus Fernandes are anticipated as the midfield pivot. Conor Gallagher is likely to play as the attacking midfielder. Rodrigo Bentancur, Lucas Bergvall, and James Maddison may come on as substitutes. Savio's recent form could see him start on the right wing, with Mathys Tel on the left.
