Liverpool vs Brighton & Hove Albion: Team news
Liverpool
Putting aside the decision over Mohamed Salah’s inclusion, head coach Arne Slot has a key call to make regarding Florian Wirtz's return to the starting line-up. Liverpool were defensively strong against Inter Milan, but their performance was underwhelming in attacking areas. With Cody Gakpo ruled out due to injury, Isak and Ekitike are expected to continue together in attack.
Brighton face a few fitness concerns ahead of the match. Kaoru Mitoma remains a major doubt, while James Milner is also struggling for fitness, though he would be keen to feature against his former club at Anfield. Yasin Ayari will undergo a late fitness check. In attack, Danny Welbeck has enjoyed a productive season, scoring seven Premier League goals so far, and is likely to lead the line. He is expected to be supported by Georginio Rutter, who scored a late equaliser in the previous league game against West Ham.
