Liverpool make the journey south to Brighton on Saturday for their second away game on the spin.
After defeating Stoke City 3-0 in midweek, the Reds will be keen to make it two wins from two against Chris Hughton’s men.
Jurgen Klopp has shown a willingness to rotate his squad in recent weeks and will likely do the same again for this fixture.
Here’s the XI that I think he’ll pick for the Brighton game:
Simon Mignolet
Mignolet is a bit lucky not to be suspended for this game as he should have been sent off at Stoke.
Trent Alexander-Arnold
With Joe Gomez set to play at centre back, Alexander-Arnold will play at right-back.
Joe Gomez
With Joel Matip injured and Ragnar Klavan unlikely to be 100% fit after his recent illness, Gomez will be needed at centre back.
Dejan Lovren
Lovren isn’t 100% either but needs must!
Alberto Moreno
Jurgen Klopp has shown no real desire to play Andy Robertson so Moreno looks likely to keep his place for this game.
Jordan Henderson
The captain was given a rest in midweek but I think he starts at Brighton.
Emre Can
Can was excellent at Stoke and I think he’ll start again here.
Adam Lallana
Given a rest in midweek, I expect Lallana to be given his first start at Brighton.
Mohamed Salah
The Premier League’s main man. Got a rest in midweek and still scored twice. Brighton’s defenders will not look forward to facing him.
Philippe Coutinho
With Lallana back in and with Sadio Mane looking like he felt something at the end of the Stoke game, I think we’ll see Coutinho play in a wide left role.
Roberto Firmino
Firmino was great against Stoke and having had his rest against Chelsea, he should be fit and firing.
