Liverpool forward Mo Salah is back in the squad but has to settle for a place on the bench as he makes his return from injury.
As expected, Caoimhin Kelleher starts in goal again in place of the injured Alisson Becker.
Liverpool’s only other changes are the additions of Ibrahima Konate and Conor Bradley in defence.
Konate replaces Jarrel Quanash at centre-back while Bradley deputises for the injured Trent Alexander-Arnold at right-back.
