Liverpool Confirmed Lineup vs Brighton: Alisson ruled out; Ben Davies on the bench

Alisson Becker has been ruled out due to an illness while new signing Ben Davies is on the bench as Liverpool get set to take on Brighton & Hove Albion.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has made a couple of changes to the side that defeated West Ham United at the weekend, for the Premier League clash against Brighton & Hove Albion at Anfield.

The first change comes between the sticks where first-choice goalkeeper Alisson Becker misses out due to an illness. In his stead, youngster Caoimhin Kelleher gets the nod. No changes are seen in the back four, with Trent Alexander-Arnold, Nat Phillips, Jordan Henderson and Andrew Robertson featuring again.

New signing Ben Davies, who arrived from Preston North End on the winter transfer deadline day, finds himself among the substitutes.

No alterations are made in the middle of the park either, with Gini Wijnaldum, Thiago Alcantara and James Milner all holding on to their spots, while Xherdan Shaqiri also starts as the lone attacking midfielder.

Up top, Mohamed Salah gets the nod again, but he is in for a change of partners as Divock Origi has dropped out to the bench, making way for Roberto Firmino.

Liverpool Starting Lineup: Kelleher, Alexander-Arnold, Phillips, Henderson, Robertson, Thiago, Wijnaldum, Milner, Shaqiri, Salah, Firmino.
