Alisson Becker replaces Caoimhin Kelleher, while Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain returns from injury as Liverpool prepare to take on Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.
Jurgen Klopp has made two changes to the side that started in the midweek Carabao Cup win over Arsenal as Liverpool get set to lock horns with Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park shortly. The first shuffle comes in goal, as Alisson Becker comes in for Caoimhin Kelleher.
The defensive line remains unchanged, with Joel Matip shrugging off a knock to be available to take on Crystal Palace. Matip and Virgil van Dijk pair up at the heart of the Liverpool defence, with Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andrew Robertson retaining their places as the two full-backs.

Up ahead in midfield, Jordan Henderson, Fabinho and Curtis Jones retain their partnership. Like Matip, Fabinho has overcome a minor fitness issue to be ready for the game against Crystal Palace and will sit at the base of the midfield unit. Henderson and Jones will be the two box-to-box midfielders, with James Milner the backup option on the bench.
The major selection surprise is Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain’s inclusion in the starting eleven. Oxlade-Chamberlain has also recently regained fitness and will start alongside Roberto Firmino and Diogo Jota in the final third. Takumi Minamino misses out again and will be a backup option for Liverpool.
Liverpool Confirmed Lineup: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Matip, van Dijk, Robertson, Henderson, Fabinho, Jones, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Firmino, Jota
