It's crunch time! Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has made one change to the team for today's final day Premier League clash with Middlesbrough.
FULL TEAM: Mignolet, Clyne, Matip, Lovren, Milner, Can, Wijnaldum, Lallana, Coutinho, Firmino, Sturridge.
SUBS: Karius, Moreno, Alexander-Arnold, Klavan, Lucas, Grujic, Origi
BORO: Guzan, Fabio, Chambers, Gibson, Friend, Clayton, Leadbitter, Forshaw, Downing, Bamford, Gestede
* Roberto Firmino comes back into the starting lineup at the expense of Divock Origi.
* Daniel Sturridge makes his second start in a row, which bodes well for his ability to remain fit.
* The bench looks a tad stronger this week, but it's still short of genuine match-winners. Hopefully, though, that won't be an issue against a relegated team. At home.
* Surprisingly, Middlesbrough have left Alvar Negredo on the bench, and opted for Rudy Gestede instead.
* Both of the club's top goalscorers are on the bench, which suggests 'Boro are going for a more defensive approach.
Today, the goal is simple: Liverpool must win. Do that, and a Champions League place is secured. Draw, or (heaven forbid) lose, and all bets are off.
There's no way Liverpool will lose at home to a relegated team...right?
