Liverpool line-up confirmed: wholesale changes as James Milner and Diogo Jota calls made

Jurgen Klopp has named his starting line-up for Liverpool’s FA Cup fifth-round tie against Norwich City at Anfield this evening (20.15).

The Reds boss has unsurprisingly made wholesale changes from Sunday’s Carabao Cup triumph over Chelsea at Wembley. There are 10 in total.

Jordan Henderson is the only survivor from the win at the national stadium.

The likes of Mo Salah, Naby Keita, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Virgil van Dijk have been given a rest and do not even feature on the bench.

As has goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher, who was Liverpool’s hero in the cup final.

Instead, Alisson Becker starts between the posts, with Kelleher and No.3 Adrian among the subs.

James Milner starts as a makeshift right-back, while Diogo Jota is back to lead the line having recently recovered from an ankle injury.

The striker came on as a substitute against Chelsea.

Joe Gomez, Divock Origi and Takumi Minamino are handed much-needed minutes from the outset.

Sadio Mane, Luis Diaz, Andy Robertson and Joel Matip - who all started against Chelsea - are also in the squad.

Liverpool: Alisson, Milner, Gomez, Konate, Tsimikas, Jones, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Henderson Jota, Origi, Minamino.

Subs: Kelleher, Adrian, Bradley, Matip, Robertson, Morton, Elliott, Mane, Diaz.
