Jurgen Klopp tinkers around with his options for Liverpool’s lunchtime trip to Nottingham Forest with James Milner and Curtis Jones handed starts.
Trent Alexander-Arnold drops down the bench while his full-back partner Andy Robertson replaces Kostas Tsimikas in the backline.
Big changes in the centre of the park
Both Thiago Alcantara and Jordan Henderson drop out of the starting XI with the former expected to be deemed an injury concern as he misses out on the matchday squad.
Harvey Elliott and Curtis Jones, the latter of whom recently returned from a long-term injury, join Fabinho in the midfield roster for the visitors at the City Ground.
Darwin Nunez sidelined for the fixture
Nunez scored his first goal at Anfield in midweek and was expected to make the XI for today’s game only for a suspected hamstring issue to sideline him.
Fabio Carvalho provides company in the attacking third to Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah while Alex Oxalde-Chamberlain features on the bench.
Here is how both teams line up for today’s Premier League fixture:
