Liverpool team news for their Premier League match at Anfield against West Ham United.
Jurgen Klopp has named his Liverpool team for tonight’s Premier League match at Anfield against West Ham United.
The Reds made five changes from Sunday’s 1-0 loss to Manchester City.
Diogo Jota was stretchered off in the closing stages with a calf injury and will be out until after the World Cup.
He’s replaced by Fabio Carvalho on the left flank.
Harvey Elliott drops to the bench with Darwin Nunez coming into the team. That may mean that Mo Salah reverts back to the right flank.
In midfield, Jordan Henderson is back to skipper Liverpool in place of Fabinho.

Despite his excellent display against City, James Milner drops out of the side. Trent Alexander-Arnold, who made a surprise return off the bench at the weekend having expected to be sidelined for a period with an ankle injury, features at right-back.
On the left-hand side of the defense, Andy Robertson drops out after recently returning from a knee issue. He’s replaced by Kostas Tsimikas.
And on the bench, there is a spot for Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain. He hasn’t made an appearance all season, having suffered a hamstring injury in July.
Liverpool: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Van Dijk, Tsimikas; Thiago, Henderson; Carvalho; Nunez, Salah, Firmino.
Subs: Kelleher, Phillips, Robertson, Milner, Fabinho, Jones, Clark, Elliott, Oxlade-Chamberlain.
