LIV vs CAR Dream11: Liverpool host Championship opposition in the FA Cup fourth-round as Cardiff City travel to Anfield. Although the Reds will be far from full-strength, Jurgen Klopp will take the opportunity to hand game-time to his most promising youngsters as well as squad players in need of minutes. Whatever starting XI that Klopp fields should dominate proceedings here, pressing the visitors hard and enforcing the high energy style of play they are known for. Although Cardiff will likely utilise their physicality to rough up the hosts, the superior ability of the Liverpool players should see the hosts come out on top.
