Arne Slot has made nine changes to his Liverpool team against Aston Villa, from the one that started in the midweek defeat to Crystal Palace. The Reds line-up is similar to the one that began against Brentford last week, but Ryan Gravenberch and Alexis Mac Allister have been recalled.

Slot has also chosen to hand Andy Robertson a first Premier League start of the season, with Milos Kerkez dropping out of the side. Gravenberch and Mac Allister's returns should be significant for the Reds, with Dominik Szoboszlai starting in the no.10 role.

Liverpool starting line-up: Mamardashvili; Bradley, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Gravenberch, Mac Allister; Salah, Szoboszlai, Gakpo; Ekitike. Aston Villa starting line-up: Martinez; Cash, Konsa, Mings, Digne; Onana, Kamara; McGinn, Guessand; Rogers, Watkins.
