Tyler Morton and Naby Keita start in midfield while Jordan Henderson is missing from the squad as Liverpool get set to face Tottenham Hotspur.
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has made three changes to the team that started in midweek versus Newcastle United for their away Premier League game against Tottenham Hotspur.
All three of the said changes come in the middle of the park as captain Jordan Henderson and Thiago Alcantara are absent from the squad. Replacing the duo are James Milner and Naby Keita. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain also drops out of the side and onto the substitutes bench, with his spot being claimed by the young Tyler Morton.

The rest of the team has not been tinkered with Klopp as Alisson Becker continues in goal while Ibrahima Konate partners Joel Matip in the absence of Virgil van Dijk. Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andrew Robertson occupy the full-back slots for the Reds against Tottenham.
Up top, Mohamed Salah, Diogo Jota and Sadio Mane keep their spots in the starting XI, with Roberto Firmino sitting out on the bench yet again. 18-year-old defender Jarell Quansah finds himself named among the substitutes, along with fellow youngster Kaide Gordon.
Liverpool Starting Lineup: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Konate, Robertson, Morton, Milner, Keita, Salah, Jota, Mane.
