Liverpool FC XI vs Brighton: Predicted lineup, confirmed team news, injury latest for Premier League
The right-back made his first start in over a month against Union Saint-Gilloise on Thursday, playing just over an hour in the 2-0 win in the Europa League, and will be ready to do so again three days later. Darwin Nunez also allayed any fitness fears by starting against the Belgian side.
Unfortunately, that is where the good news ends for Jurgen Klopp. He will be without both Diogo Jota and Curtis Jones following their red cards against Tottenham last time out, and has another three out injured.
Cody Gakpo scored in north London but injured himself in the process, so will sit out the trip to the south coast, while Thiago Alcantara remains sidelined and Stefan Bajcetic has suffered a setback on his road to recovery.
Liverpool predicted XI: Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Endo, Szoboszlai, Mac Allister; Salah, Nunez, Diaz
Doubts: None
Outs: Thiago, Bajcetic, Jota (suspended), Jones (suspended)
Time and date: 2pm, Sunday, October 8, 2023
Venue: Amex Stadium
