For the second week going, Liverpool face a team a bit tricky to predict at this point in the season: while we know about Oliver Glasner from his time at Crystal Palace, he is quite an adaptable manager and thus we can't be 100% confident how he will approach an away match against Liverpool with this particular squad. Indeed, in his pre-match press conference for this one, Glasner said that the formation he will use will not be settled until after the transfer window closes and the dust settles: there's a high level of uncertainty until the personnel is settled. That said, that we have buckets of evidence of Glasner in the Premier League and the professionals at Liverpool will certainly have hypotheses and plans.
