Liverpool will take on Brighton & Hove Albion at the American Express Community Stadium this Saturday looking to advance further into the FA Cup competition. The Reds were held to a scoreless draw against Chelsea in their last outing of the Premier League recently, so they would be eager to put on a strong display this weekend.
Jurgen Klopp will set his team up in a 4-3-3 formation and is expected to make a couple of changes to the starting XI this weekend. Trent Alexander-Arnold is set to play from the start as he gets the nod over James Milner while Fabinho could replace Stafan Bajcetic in the defensive midfield position.
4-3-3 Liverpool Predicted XI Vs Brighton
Defence
Alisson Becker will continue to feature in between the sticks for the Reds after keeping a clean sheet in his last outing. Joel Matip will function alongside Ibrahima Konate at the centre of the Liverpool defence as they look to keep things solid at the back throughout the game.
Trent Alexander-Arnold will function as the right-back while Andrew Robertson hopes to give a good account of himself as the left-back. Both of them would be eager to put in a good display out on the flanks.
Joe Gomez will be named on the bench as he offers cover for the defensive positions.
Midfield
Thiago Alcantara, Fabinho and Jordan Henderson will operate as the holding midfielders as they focus on dominating the game at the centre of the park and engineer enough clear-cut chances for Liverpool to win this game.
Naby Keita will be available for selection on the bench as he waits for his chance to shine in the second half if needed.
Attack
Harvey Elliot will get another chance to impress on the left flank while Mohamed Salah looks to weave his magic from the right.
Cody Gakpo will lead the charge for the Merseyside club in the final third. The Nederlands international will fancy his chances of finding the back of the net and getting his name on the scoresheet.
