Liverpool will travel to Amex Stadium to face Brighton in the Premier League clash on Saturday lunchtime, and you can watch this and other Premier League matches live online.

The Reds are heading into this match after a surprising 2-0 loss to Atalanta in the Champions League clash on Wednesday.

Jurgen Klopp was clearly not impressed with what he saw from his players midweek, and will demand a strong response from his side.

The German boss will definitely be looking to make some changes from the last game, and this is the team we expect Klopp to select against Brighton:

Goalie: Alisson, the starting goalkeeper, will keep his place in goal.

Defending: This is where the selection gets tricky for Klopp. Trent Alexander-Arnold is approaching a return from injury, but the young England right-back can’t take chances here. Neco Williams fought the Italian team in the last game, and could be eliminated with James Milner replacing him on the right back.

With Joe Gomez and Virgil van Dijk injured for long periods, Fabinho is likely to start alongside Joel Matip instead of Rhys Williams. Left-back Andy Roberton will also return after having rested in the last game.

Midfield: Thiago Alcantara and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain still have doubts for the Reds, while Xherdan Shaqiri and Naby Keita could be out for a while. Captain Jordan Henderson returned to training on Thursday and is likely to start alongside Gini Wijnaldum.

Ahead: Mohamed Salah, who missed the last Premier League game against Leicester City, returned to action midweek and is ready to retain his place. Roberto Firmino and Diogo Jota rested against Atalanta and will return to the side on Saturday.

Jota, 23, has been in brilliant form this season, having scored eight goals in Champions League competition.

Liverpool’s planned starting line-up: Alisson, Milner, Fabinho, Matip, Robertson; Henderson, Wijnaldum; Jota, Mane, Salah, Firmino.
