Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is recalled into the starting XI for Liverpool who are without striker Darwin Nunez for the trip to Brighton.
Konate retains his starting berth
The French defender provides cover for the injured Virgil van Dijk who remains on the sidelines for this fixture too with his hamstring issue.
Joel Matip is Konate’s partner in the centre-back role while Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andy Robertson slot in the full-back roles on either side of the pitch.
Chamberlain starts up front
Liverpool’s midfield has the skipper Jordan Henderson joining Thiago Alcantara and Fabinho with Klopp going to his nailed-on starters for the engine room.
In the front line, with Darwin Nunez injured and not a part of the matchday squad, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain provides company to Mo Salah and new boy Cody Gakpo.
Here is how both teams line up for today’s Premier League fixture:
