#2 Interchanging positions for Firmino and Salah
Though Mohamed Salah has wrecked havoc this season by dominating the inside right channel - a space between the fullback and the centre back, he has often failed to track back and support his right back.
The period in the two legs against Manchester City in the quarterfinals where City dominated were an example where David Silva and Leroy Sane tried to outnumber Trent Alexander-Arnold on Liverpool's right side. At that time, Salah was stationed on the halfway line.
Real Madrid will try to use this tactic with Toni Kroos looking to combine with Marcelo to get past Arnold and put in troubling crosses into the box. A ploy that Liverpool can use is to have a fluid system where Firmino and Salah can change positions.
This can work for Jurgen Klopp, offensively and defensively. Without the ball, Firmino can track Marcelo's run and keep him in check. And offensively, during counters, Salah will then get an opportunity to run straight at Sergio Ramos who has been found out in recent times when up against pace merchants.
