Brighton hand a first Premier League start to Brazilian centre-back Igor Julio, with Evan Ferguson given the nod ahead of Danny Welbeck up front.

Diogo Jota and Curtis Jones are suspended for Liverpool, who are without Cody Gakpo through injury. Jurgen Klopp names a front three of Luis Diaz, Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah.

The Reds suffered late heartbreak in north London. Playing with nine men, they were able to hold Tottenham at 1-1 until the final moments of the game, when an own goal from Joel Matip gave Ange Postecoglou's side all three points.

The big talking point, though, was Luis Diaz's disallowed goal in the first half. The officials have since admitted they were wrong to chalk that effort off, but Jurgen Klopp stated this week that he believes a replay would be the fairest solution, even though the Liverpool manager acknowledged it is unlikely to happen.

The Reds recovered to beat Union Saint-Gilloise 2-0 in the Europa League on Thursday, but this match against Brighton will have been Klopp's main focus this week.

The Seagulls were also in Europa League action on Thursday, coming from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 with Marseille. It was a good response from Roberto De Zerbi's side, who were thumped 6-1 by Aston Villa in their last Premier League encounter.

Brighton are the top scorers in the division after seven rounds of fixtures, but only three teams have conceded more goals. Their games are often hugely entertaining and Sunday's is unlikely to be an exception.
