Jurgen Klopp has resisted the urge to make any changes from the 2-2 draw with Arsenal despite Thiago impressing from the bench. Curtis Jones keeps his place.
It’s a strong looking Liverpool bench with Luis Diaz back amongst the party for the first time since October after a pretty serious knee injury.
No Patrick Bamford in the Leeds squad – must be an injury for the striker. Big shame for him having looked more like himself in recent weeks.
Top scorer Rodrigo returns to lead the line, making his first start for eight games.
The other change is at full-back where Luke Ayling drops out for the first time in 15 Premier League games meaning Rasmus Kristensen makes just his second start of 2023.
