Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain starts for Liverpool against West Ham United with Andy Robertson returning to his left-back role for Sunday’s showdown in the English capital.
Jurgen Klopp makes only change from the side that emerged 2-0 winners over La Liga champions Atletico Madrid in the midweek contest at Anfield.
Unchanged backline barring Roberton’s return
Joel Matip partners Virgil van Dijk once again in the heart of the four-man defensive lineup for Liverpool with Ibrahima Konate on the bench and Joe Gomez out injured until after the forthcoming international break.
Kostas Tsimikas drops down to the bench which means that Andy Robertson reclaims his place in the left-back slot for the away side.
Chamberlain starts in midfield with Thiago on the bench
Klopp decides against rushing his midfield maestro Thiago into action after his recent return from injury with Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain partnering with Jordan Henderson and Fabinho in the Liverpool midfield department.
Roberto Firmino’s hamstring injury sidelines him for the game as Diogo Jota is handed the central striking role with Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane out on the flanks.
