Jurgen Klopp rings in major changes to the Liverpool XI for Sunday’s Turf Moor showdown with Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane back on the team sheet.
Diogo Jota and Luis Diaz drop down to the bench from the side that won 2-0 over Leicester City midweek with Thiago Alcantara making way for Naby Keita’s inclusion.
An unchanged defensive lineup for the visitors
Joel Matip continues to partner Virgil van Dijk in the heart of the backline for Liverpool with Klopp not handing a starting role to the third-choice centre-back Ibrahima Konate.
Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andy Robertson slot in the full-back roles on either side of the pitch.
Keita and Henderson return to midfield
Skipper Jordan Henderson is joined by the returning Naby Keita in the midfield roles with Fabinho while both Thiago Alcantara and Curtis Jones drop out of the XI.
January signing Luis Diaz who made his league debut last time around against Leicester makes way for the AFCON-winning Sadio Mane while Jota is dropped for Salah’s return.
Here is how both teams line up for today’s Premier League fixture:
