I'd have picked Thiago personally, but we don't know what Klopp has seen during training.
I expect us to go for it, not sure how good or not the Real players are at tracking back, their midfield have immense quality, but have slowed down a lot, Keita breaking with the ball behind them to help get us ahead could work very nicely indeed and then Thiago coming on for Naby when Real are chasing it looking to pick his passes that take 3 or 4 out of the game and try and pick them off on the counter for more goals
