Liverpool have received a timely injury boost ahead their clash with Manchester United on Sunday afternoon, as the team news for the game emerges.
Wataru Endo returns to Jurgen Klopp's starting XI, having missed out on selection for their last outing due to a knock.
He joins Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai in the midfield three that takes on the Red Devils.
Andy Robertson comes into the side after a fantastic cameo display against Sheffield United, with Joe Gomez moving to the bench.
Conor Bradley, Virgil van Dijk and Jarell Quansah make up the rest of the back four - Ibrahima Konate was perhaps lucky to escape serious injury after being on the end of a scissor challenge against the Blades in midweek, but only makes the bench.
Caoimhin Kelleher unsurprisingly keeps his spot between the sticks, while Liverpool's go-to front-three of Mohamed Salah, Darwin Nunez and Luis Diaz seek to do the damage up top.
Curtis Jones, who made his return to action in midweek after a spell out with injury, once again lines up on the bench alongside the likes of Ryan Gravenberch, Harvey Elliott and Cody Gakpo.
For United, a lack of defensive options means youngster Willy Kwambala is thrown into the lineup for just his second start.
