LIV vs GEN Dream11 top picks

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain was back to his best in Belgium after netting a brace against Genk in the earlier fixture. His knack to make runs from the midfield and score from outside the box can help Liverpool if the visitors decide to sit back. Sadio Mane, on current form, is an automatic pick to star for Liverpool. As a matter of fact, you cannot go wrong with any of the Liverpool front three. 

Genk did worry the Liverpool backline more than once last time out and striker Mbwana Samata had some glorious chances to score. If Genk bring the same level of intensity to Anfield, Samata can be a great pick.

LIV vs GEN Dream11 match prediction

Liverpool 3-1 Genk

It is tough to predict against Liverpool at Anfield. Genk did offer some threat going forward when the sides met in Belgium a fortnight ago, but at Anfield, the European Champions should prevail. Sadio Mane, Mohamed Salah will be expected to get on the scoresheet for the home side.
