Joel Matip comes in for Jordan Henderson while Mohamed Salah has been benched as Liverpool prepare to welcome Burnley to Anfield.
Jurgen Klopp has made three changes to the side that started in the goalless stalemate against Manchester United this past weekend in the Premier League as Liverpool get set to play hosts to Burnley at Anfield. There are no shuffles in goal, where Alisson Becker starts ahead of Caoimhin Kelleher again.
The first change comes in defence, where Joel Matip has replaced Jordan Henderson. Matip forms the central defensive partnership with Fabinho, while Liverpool captain Henderson misses out from the matchday squad altogether. Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andrew Robertson retain their spots out wide.

Up ahead in midfield, Thiago Alcantara and Georginio Wijnaldum keep hold of their places, with Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain coming in to make a rare start for Liverpool. James Milner and Curtis Jones are backup midfield options on the bench.
Finally, in attack, the final two changes sees Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino drop down to the bench. Xherdan Shaqiri, who started in midfield last time out, moves up into the Liverpool attacking slots, where he is joined by Sadio Mane and Divock Origi, who starts a Premier League game for the first time this season.
