Trent Alexander-Arnold earns a recall to the Liverpool XI for Sunday’s FA Cup fourth-round contest against Brighton at the Amex.
The England full-back was on the bench last time out in the goalless draw against Chelsea and his return to the team sheet would be a welcome boost for Jurgen Klopp’s Reds.
Gomez pips Matip to the starting berth
With mainstay Virgil van Dijk working his way to full fitness from a hamstring injury, Klopp decides to give the nod to Joe Gomez over Joel Matip to partner Ibrahima Konate in the centre-back role.
Andy Robertson starts in the left-back role with Kostas Tsimikas among the substitutes while Alexander-Arnold slots in his usual right-back position.
Stefan Bajčetić starts ahead of Fabinho
Here is how both teams line up for today’s FA Cup fixture:
