Liverpool welcome Chelsea to Anfield this afternoon.

Kick-off is at 16:30 BST.

Arne Slot makes three changes to his starting XI, with Caoimhin Kelleher, Andrew Robertson and Dominik Szoboszlai coming in for Alisson Becker, Kostas Tsimikas and Alexis Mac Allister.

It means Cody Gakpo is preferred in attack to Luis Diaz.

As for Chelsea, Reece James is a surprise starter having recovered from injury.

It suggests Malo Gusto will switch over to left-back, with Marc Cucurella suspended.

Elsewhere, Tosin Adarabioyo replaces Wesley Fofana, who is also banned, while Romeo Lavia starts in central midfield over Enzo Fernandez.

LINE-UPS

Liverpool XI: Kelleher, Alexander-Arnold, Konate, van Dijk, Robertson, Gravenberch, Szoboszlai, Jones, Salah, Gakpo, Jota

Subs: Jaros, Gomez, Endo, Diaz, Darwin, Mac Allister, Tsimikas, Quansah, Morton

Chelsea XI: Sanchez, James, Tosin, Colwill, Gusto, Lavia, Caicedo, Madueke, Palmer, Sancho, Jackson

Subs: Bettinelli, Disasi, Badiashile, Neto, Enzo, Felix, Nkunku, Dewsbury-Hall, Veiga

    But just ironic that it was before 60 (yes, nobody owns him but still).

    It’s relative, Wolves have been conceding far more. I expected Salah to score today but very surprised at Haaland blanking. Just a blip or worrying trend? Was tempted to TC him next week

Crazy how often doing nothing would have been best. Had plenty of FTs so switched Salah and Jackson to Haaland and Dibling for a couple of weeks. Wasn’t a 50/50 decision for me so not kicking myself - and very happy as a Liverpool fan - but it’s just funny how doing nothing is often the best policy
