Four Premier League matches kick off at 3pm GMT this afternoon, with league leaders Liverpool among the teams in action.

Following Manchester City’s 2-2 draw with Newcastle United in the lunchtime game, the Reds can extend the gap between themselves and Pep Guardiola’s side to 11 points with a victory over Brighton and Hove Albion.

Jurgen Klopp hasn’t taken any chances with his starting XI, naming about as a strong a team as possible for the visit of Graham Potter’s side.

Fabinho is both suspended and injured for this encounter, with the Brazilian’s place taken by Mohamed Salah.

The Egyptian’s return sees Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain move back into the centre of midfield.

There are no real shocks elsewhere, with Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Andrew Robertson and Virgil van Dijk all making Klopp’s starting XI.

Potter has made four changes to the Seagulls’ team, recalling Lewis Dunk (back from suspension), Yves Bissouma, Pascal Gross and the fit-again Aaron Connolly.

Shane Duffy, Solly March, Leandro Trossard and, perhaps most surprisingly, Neal Maupay drop out.

Mason Mount returns to the Chelsea starting XI for the visit of West Ham United, meanwhile.

Pedro and Olivier Giroud also come into the side, with Willian and the injured Tammy Abraham the men to make way.

Roberto has finally paid the price for his iffy displays and has been replaced by David Martin for the visitors, with Fabian Balbuena in for the suspended Issa Diop.

Michail Antonio looks to be leading the line, with Sebastien Haller benched.

Lucas Moura has been dropped by Jose Mourinho for Spurs’ match against Bournemouth.

Tanguy Ndombele, Moussa Sissoko and Jan Vertonghen come into the team, with Danny Rose and Harry Winks making way.

Eddie Howe makes four changes from the side that lost to Wolves.

Simon Francis and Philip Billing are both suspended, while Harry Wilson and Adam Smith drop out. Dominic Solanke, Jefferson Lerma, Arnaut Danjuma Groeneveld and Jack Stacey all start.

Burnley are forced into one alteration from the side that beat Watford.

Robbie Brady comes into midfield for the suspended Ashley Westwood.

Roy Hodgson’s changes are both enforced.

Joel Ward and Gary Cahill are both out with knee injuries, so Martin Kelly and Scott Dann step in.


Burnley XI: Pope; Bardsley, Tarkowski, Mee, Taylor; Brady, Cork, Hendrick, McNeil, Wood, Barnes.

Crystal Palace XI: Guaita; Kelly, Dann, Tomkins, van Aanholt; Townsend, Milivojevic, Kouyate, McArthur, Zaha; Ayew.

Chelsea XI: Arrizabalaga; James, Zouma, Tomori, Emerson; Kovacic, Jorginho, Mount; Pedro, Giroud, Pulisic.

West Ham XI: Martin; Fredericks, Balbuena, Ogbonna, Cresswell; Noble, Rice; Fornals, Snodgrass, Anderson; Antonio.

Liverpool XI: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Van Dijk, Lovren, Robertson; Wijnaldum, Henderson, Oxlade-Chamberlain; Mane, Salah, Firmino.

Brighton XI: Ryan; Montoya, Webster, Dunk, Burn; Bissouma, Stephens, Propper; Gross, Connolly, Mooy.

Spurs XI: Gazzaniga; Aurier, Alderweireld, Sanchez, Vertonghen; Dier, Ndombele; Sissoko, Dele, Son; Kane.

Bournemouth XI: Ramsdale; Stacey, S. Cook, Ake, Rico; Fraser, Lerma, L. Cook, Groeneveld; Solanke, C. Wilson.

    Amazing what a decent goalkeeper does to the entire team. The confidence streams to the rest of the team.
    Roberto should just go back to Spain and rebuild his dignity, PL just aint his level.
