ROTOWIRE FANTASY ANALYSIS

Mignolet had a mostly quiet day, only really being troubled on set pieces. Mignolet has had a bit of an up-and-down season, partially owing to shaky defending at the back and due to his own inconsistencies; however, Liverpool seems to be finding their form at the right time. After a mid-week visit from Borussia Dortmund in the Europa League, Liverpool travel to Bournemouth for their next Premier League clash.

WATCH: Simon Mignolet, be warned, Shinji Kagawa has got some magic up his sleeve

Borussia Dortmund need to score at Anfield, this much we know.

Liverpool would have taken the 1-1 draw at the Westfalenstadion prior to kick-off on Thursday night but, in reality, they could have put the tie beyond Dortmund in the first leg.

The priorities of Dortmund manager Thomas Tuchel became clear as he made eight changes for his side's 2-2 draw at Schalke on Sunday afternoon but Shinji Kagawa may well have played his way into his starting eleven for next Thursday's second leg.

The Japanese international started at the weekend, having played no part in the Europa League three days earlier but he could be called upon against Liverpool after opening the scoring against Schalke in stunning circumstances.

Just after half-time, Kagawa led a Dortmund attack before playing the ball into the feet of Moritz Leitner who deftly flicked it back into the path of the former Manchester United midfielder.

Kagawa arrived at the lay-off at pace but, rather than smash it, he delicately dinked the ball into the top corner.

Simon Mignolet, you've been warned.
