The Reds are looking to extend the winning run under our head coach to four matches and end an eight-game stretch without a win against this afternoon's opponents, which includes the 2-2 draw in north London earlier in the campaign.
With Matthijs de Ligt, scorer of the dramatic equaliser at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Mason Mount and Patrick Chinazaekpere Dorgu out through injury, the boss has named an unchanged line-up.
Hence, Bryan Mbeumo looks set to lead the line, with Benjamin Sesko, last weekend's matchwinner against Fulham, kept in reserve.
There is a change among the substitutes, with Tyler Fletcher selected in a senior squad for the fifth time, but this is the first occasion under Carrick.
