Alisson Becker, Virgil van Dijk, Fabinho and Diogo Jota make up the quartet who keep their places.

The likes of Harvey Elliott, Roberto Firmino - who netted off the bench against Arsenal - Ibou Konate, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Naby Keita come into the team.

Trent Alexander-Arnold is sidelined for several weeks after suffering a hamstring injury. Joe Gomez instead starts at right-back in Alexander-Arnold’s place.

Mo Salah, Andy Robertson and Sadio Mane have also been given the afternoon off. The former has been having trouble with a foot injury.
