PRVW
Brighton are not settling as they visit Anfield. "We're here for the three points," says defender Veltman.
Baleba has been surpisingly benched by Brighton boss Hurzeler!!
PRVW
Kadioglu is back for Brighton despite an injury scare on Wednesday in the Carabao Cup game!!
PRVW
Slot has chosen to not included Curtis Jones in the starting line up after handing him two successive starts. The manager aims to ensure hia squad is not unnecessarily overworked.
PRVW
On the forward, Slot said: "Cody Gakpo is key player for us. For me, he is a regular starter. Maybe he’s not starting every game, but he’s started on a regular basis and he’s in a tough competition with Luis Diaz… so that’s normal at a club like Liverpool."
PRVW
Luis Diaz and Cody Gakpo both scored in midweek, though the Dutchman has been chosen to start after being subbed off early in the Carabao Cup game.
PRVW
So, Caoimhin Kelleher, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Virgil van Dijk, Ibrahima Konate and Ryan Gravenberch all slot straight back into the XI after being rested midweek. While Kostas Tsimikas replaces Andy Robertson after the Scot started the last two matches.
PRVW
Here's how Brighton line up (4-4-2): Verbruggen (GK); Veltman, Van Hecke, Igor, Estupinan; Kadioglu, Hinshelwood, Ayari, Mitoma; Rutter, Welbeck.
Here's how Liverpool line up (4-3-3): Kelleher (GK); Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Tsimikas; Szoboszlai, Gravenberch, Mac Allister; Salah, Nunez, Gakpo.
Almost time for the starting XIs to be revealedddddddd!!!
PRVW
Here's how Brighton could line up (4-2-3-1): Verbruggen (GK); Veltman, Van Hecke, Igor, Estupinan; Baleba, Ayari; Gruda, Rutter, Mitoma; Welbeck.
PRVW
Here's how Liverpool could line up (4-3-3): Kelleher (GK); Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Tsimikas; Szoboszlai, Gravenberch, Mac Allister; Salah, Nunez, Gakpo.
PRVW
With all that settled, it's time to look at some possible line ups!!!!
PRVW
In the midweek Carabao Cup game against the Reds, Ferdi Kadioglu was substituted at half-time due to injury however, Brighton boss Hurzeler has said that he believes the Turkey international's issue isn'too serious and could thus be available today.
PRVW
Matt O'Riley and Joao Pedro are both back in training, with Lewis Dunk also edging closer to a return. That said, whether they could feature in the game is still a big question mark.
PRVW
For the Seagulls, Adam Webster, James Milner and Solly March are continuie their periods on the sidelines, however the latter is nearing a return from his long-term injury. Yankuba Minteh is also out after sustaining an injury while on international duty with Gambia.
PRVW
On the former Juventus forward, Slot confided that his fitness condition is continuously flactuating. "Sometimes he’s there with us, trains a few days, and then goes out for injury again. I don’t want to put days or weeks on it, because I think we just have to make sure he gets in the best possible shape. I don’t want to put any pressure on him by coming up with dates," he explained on Chiesa.
PRVW
For the hosts, manager Arne Slot confirmed yesteday that Alisson Becker, Federico Chiesa and Diogo Jota will all be out. Though their return dates are yet to be confirmed, the Dutchman reveals that it wil not be until after the November international break. Midfielder Harvey Elliot is also sidelined as he continues with his recovery from a long-term injury.
PRVW
Several players will miss out on the game from both ends....
PRVW
Six points separate the two teams, but how will that change after this afternoon's clash? Any predicitons?
PRVW
In the standings the Reds are still going strong as they sit with 22 points, just one behing league-leaders Man City. Brighton have also had a positive start to the Premier League, as they're one spot away from the European places in sixth, one point behind Chelsea.
PRVW
Matchday 9 saw both teams come away with one point each following their respective 2-2 draws against Arsenal (for Liverpool) and Wolves (for Brighton).
PRVW
But we are back to the Premier League now!!!
