An appearance for Liverpool against Aston Villa would be the Champions League-winning defender’s 100th for the first team, having only turned 21 last month.
The century comes little over three years after the Scouser made his senior debut for the club against Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield.
The journey has included two European Cup final appearances, five goals, a Premier League assist record and, last month, a nomination for the Ballon d’Or.
“It’s just a dream, you never think you will play 100 times for Liverpool,” Alexander-Arnold told the Liverpool Echo ahead of the game.
“I always thought, growing up, that I would hopefully play one or two games, but never near 100, especially at such a young age.
“You never think it is going to happen like this and you don’t think it will go so quick as well. Thinking back, I can’t remember all of the games, but it has been a fast three years I suppose, it has gone around so quick.
“The aim was to play as many games as possible for this club and try to get as close as I can to those types of numbers [of Jamie Carragher and Steven Gerrard]. I am still so far away from that but it is great to have so many games in my career so early on.
“Hopefully there are a lot more games to come. It is obviously important for me to think that I am there around the same numbers [currently] as Gerrard and Carragher were, because I grew up wanting to be them, so for me to hear stuff like that is a proud thing.”
