Arne Slot will shuffle his pack for Liverpool’s visit of Southampton in the Carabao Cup, giving numerous fringe players a chance to shine.The Reds host Saints on Tuesday evening, taking on their Championship opponents in the third round.For Liverpool, the Carabao Cup is the least important competition this season, but that’s not to say that Slot won’t want to progress.This is a Reds squad capable of fighting on all four fronts, and there will be lots of individuals desperate to prove their worth.Here are five players we believe have a good chance of playing against Saints. Giorgi MamardashviliStarts this season: 0Minutes played: 0Giorgi Mamardashvili arrived at Liverpool from Valencia this summer, coming in to replace Caoimhin Kelleher as Alisson‘s deputy.This feels like the ideal time for the Georgian to make his Reds debut, with Alisson being given the night off at Anfield.Given Liverpool’s No.1’s injury-prone nature, there is every chance that Mamardashvili will be needed in the Premier League this season, so Slot will want him to remain match fit.Playing the 24-year-old in the domestic cups in 2025/26 makes complete sense. Joe GomezStarts this season: 0Minutes played: 29Joe Gomez has stayed put at Liverpool, carrying on as their longest-serving current player, and he will surely start against Southampton.Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate need to be wrapped in cotton wool, ahead of a tough trip to Crystal Palace on Saturday.Gomez could even captain Liverpool, depending on the strength of team that Slot goes with, and it will be great for him to get minutes under his belt after injury problems.Not only that, but he could be partnering a Reds debutant… Giovanni LeoniStarts this season: 0Minutes played: 0Giovanni Leoni has arrived at Liverpool as one of Europe’s most exciting young centre-backs, with a huge future predicted for him.With Van Dijk and Konate unlikely to budge as the Reds’ first-choice pairing in the league, the Carabao Cup could become Leoni’s competition this season.The 18-year-old should be raring to go, ahead of a likely debut, and it will be fascinating to see how he fares.Hopefully, it is the first of many Liverpool appearances for the prodigious Italian. Curtis JonesStarts this season: 2Minutes played: 166Curtis Jones‘ season hasn’t got going yet for Liverpool, with injuries limiting him to only 166 minutes of Premier League action.With the likes of Ryan Gravenberch, Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai all expected to be rested on Tuesday, Jones should come into the team.It will be a great opportunity for him to find some match sharpness against weaker opposition, as he looks to kick his campaign into gear.Jones has a challenge on his hands getting his place back in the team regularly, but an influential showing against Saints would be a big step in the right direction. Federico ChiesaStarts this season: 0Minutes played: 47Memories of Federico Chiesa‘s late goal at home to Bournemouth are still fresh in Liverpool supporters’ minds, with the winger such a popular fiugure.He has continued to struggle for playing time, however, and the Carabao Cup is the perfect chance to give him minutes.Chiesa can take over from Mohamed Salah on the right flank, looking to prove to Slot that he was worth retaining beyond the summer.He could be one of Liverpool’s most experienced starters at Anfield. Rio NgomohaStarts this season: 2Minutes played: 166Of all the players that fans are most excited about seeing take to the field on Tuesday, Rio Ngumoha is right near the top of the list.The 17-year-old has made an explosive start to the season, not least scoring that goal at Newcastle, and he should start over Cody Gakpo on the left flank.Ngumoha is among the most exciting teenagers to play for Liverpool in decades, and a big performance here would further show Slot that he is now a genuine squad option.There is a spark of energy when the Englishman gets the ball and he could be the star attraction.
