Liverpool vs. Monaco: Preview, Predictions and Lineups Liverpool are just two weeks away from their Premier League opener with Newcastle United.
Justin De Haas - Back in starting XI Saturday De Haas (groin) was included in Valencia's starting lineup for Saturday's friendly matchup versus Newcastle.
Impact De Haas will be in contention for minutes in a potential three-man back line during his first season with Valencia after a transfer from Portuguese side Famalicao. If he ends up getting a starting role, he could hold plenty of upside, considering he scored five goals despite playing at center-back during the previous league season in Portugal, where he also averaged 5.1 clearances and 1.5 tackles per game. Other players such as Mouctar Diakhaby and Copete (knee) might see their playing time reduced now that de Haas is available.

Anthony Elanga - Shin injury not considered serious Elanga suffered a blow to the shin during Saturday's friendly contest against Valencia, after which coach Matthias Jaissle stated that "It was a shocking challenge, that's right. I...
Impact Elanga was stretchered off the field in the first half of the practice match, and despite initial fears of a significant issue, it now appears he could avoid such complication. However, the forward will likely need to be evaluated, and his involvement in upcoming friendlies may be limited so that the injury heals in time for the Aug. 23 season opener versus Liverpool. He has been operating on the right wing, and it was Jacob Murphy who took that spot after his injury exit Saturday.

William Osula - Features in offseason Osula (groin) started and played 45 minutes during Saturday's friendly clash against Valencia.
Impact Osula's comeback from a minor injury boosts his side's depth at the striker position, with the forward expected to be part of a rotation with Yoane Wissa and Nick Woltemade, although he played alongside the latter during the last friendly game. Despite some moments of inconsistency, the former Sheffield United man had finished the 2025/26 season in good form, scoring five goals over his last seven starts.

Joelinton - Subs on versus Valencia Joelinton (thigh) played as a substitute during Saturday's friendly match against Valencia.
Impact Joelinton bounced back in time to see preseason action after dealing with a physical issue since the final two weeks of the previous campaign. He's now set to work on regaining top form, as he could be a key piece of a Newcastle midfield that lost Sandro Tonali and Bruno Guimaraes, who joined Tottenham and Arsenal, respectively, over the transfer window. At his best, Joelinton could serve as a consistent all-around contributor, although it may take a bit of time for him to regain extended playing time.
