Diaz, Robertson and Szoboszlai OUT: Liverpool starting XI vs Crystal Palace

Liverpool take on Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park as they look to remain top of the Premier League table with a win.

Arne Slot has swayed away from his usual tactic of avoiding rotation to field a team with a number of changes from Wednesday's victory over Bologna in the UEFA Champions League.

Alisson Becker will start in goal for the Reds with the back four of Trent Alexander-Arnold, Ibrahima Konate, Virgil van Dijk and Kostas Tsimikas in front of him.

Ryan Gravenberch will again start in Liverpool's midfield after a impressing at every opportunity this season. He will be joined by Alexis Mac Allister and Curtis Jones, who replaces Dominik Szoboszlai in the team.

Mohamed Salah retains his place on the right-wing but Diogo Jota will return to the starting XI ahead of Darwin Nunez. Luis Diaz who has been in great from is replaced by Cody Gakpo.

Curtis Jones returns to the Liverpool starting XI to make his first Premier League start under Slot, and the 23-year-old will be looking to impress if he wants to nail down a place in the team.

Cody Gakpo has impressed this season and a good performance today will make the battle between himself and Luis Diaz even more interesting.

After a somewhat dissapointing performance against Bologna from Darwin Nunez it is no surprise to see a fully-fit Diogo Jota return to the starting XI for today's clash.

Federico Chiesa and Harvey Elliott remain unavailable due to injury and will miss today's game completely.
