Liverpool is set to return to Premier League action after a month-long break since their last match against Manchester City. This time, they will face Brighton. The international break has caused some changes in Liverpool’s squad, with Andy Robertson picking up an ιnjury, but the return of players like Darwin Núñez and Ryan Gravenberch provides a boost.

Despite these changes, the majority of Liverpool’s starting XI is expected to remain unchanged. Núñez sustained a knock in the match against Manchester United, so his involvement might be limited, while Gravenberch was available but not utilized in the previous game.

Liverpool.com writers have suggested their preferred lineups for the Brighton match. Matt Addison’s selection includes Caoimhín Kelleher in goal, with Joe Gomez filling in for the injured Robertson at left-back. In midfield, Wataru Endō anchors the team, flanked by Dominik Szoboszlai and Alexis Mac Allister. The front three consists of Mohamed Salah, Darwin Núñez, and Luis Díaz.

James Findlater’s lineup is similar to Addison’s, with the addition of Ibrahima Konaté and Conor Bradley in defense. Instead of Gomez, Findlater opts for Kostas Tsimikas at left-back. The midfield trio remаins unchanged, and the front three features Salah, Núñez, and Díaz.

Both writers predict a victory for Liverpool, with Addison suggesting a 2-0 scoreline and Findlater predicting a 3-1 result. One player to watch is Mohamed Salah, who is expected to make an impact in the game.

The writers emphasize the importance of fielding a strong team considering Liverpool’s title aspirations, and players like Curtis Jones face tough competition to regain their place in the starting lineup.
