Jurgen Klopp makes ten changes as Liverpool rotate for Norwich FA Cup test

Jurgen Klopp makes 10 changes to his Liverpool side as they host Norwich in the FA Cup.

After the punishing 120-minute Carabao Cup final ended with a successful penalty shootout against Chelsea on Sunday, Klopp has made wholesale changes to his team for the visit of the Canaries.

Alisson Becker starts in place of Caoimhin Kelleher in goal as James Milner comes in for Trent Alexander-Arnold at right-back and Kostas Tsimikas deputises for Andy Robertson on the left.

Ibrahima Konate and Joe Gomez are selected at centre-back as Jordan Henderson, Curtis Jones and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain are named in a midfield three.

Henderson is the only player to keep his place from Sunday's team as Virgil van Dijk, Naby Keita, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Fabinho and Mohamed Salah are all given the evening off.

Up top, Divock Origi, Diogo Jota and Takumi Minamino form a fluid-looking trio as Klopp's side look to book their place in the quarter-finals of the world's oldest cup competition.

Thiago Alcantara and Roberto Firmino are both absent through injury.

Liverpool : Alisson; Milner, Konate, Gomez, Tsimikas; Jones, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Elliott; Minamino, Jota, Origi.

Subs : Adrian, Kelleher, Mane, Diaz, Robertson, Matip, Elliott, Morton, Bradley.
