Florian Wirtz has been placed on the bench again as Liverpool take on Manchester United in the Premier League this afternoon.
Arne Slot has made no changes to the starting line-up that lost to Chelsea before the October international break, with Dominik Szoboszlai given the lead over the German playmaker for the second week in a row.
Wirtz, who joined the Reds from Bayer Leverkusen last summer in a deal worth up to £116 million, was backed by his manager this week but was not trusted from the first whistle for the visit of United.
Meanwhile, Ruben Amorim has opted to start Matheus Cunha up top instead of Benjamin Sesko.
