Ibrahima Konate makes his first Liverpool start for nearly two months as they are entertained by Brentford.
Konate is one of three changes as captain Jordan Henderson misses out entirely through concussion and Curtis Jones returns to the squad.
France international Konate went all the way to the World Cup final in Qatar before les Bleus were beaten by Argentina on penalties on December 18 and the centre-half is back in the Reds side for his first appearance since the victory over Tottenham on November 6.
