Liverpool vs Brighton team news
Slot will be without Diogo Jota and Harvey Elliott until after the November international break, while Alisson Becker isn’t expected back here. Federico Chiesa continues to work towards full fitness, but keeps suffering setbacks.
“Chiesa is not back before the international break,” Slot said on Friday. “We are hoping he can do things in the international break then join us.”
Brighton could welcome back Joao Pedro after his recent injury absence. Captain Lewis Dunk is also pushing to be fit after missing the midweek game with an injury picked up over the weekend. Ferdi Kadioglu is expected to be available following a foot issue but Adam Webster, James Milner, Matt O'Riley and Solly March remain unavailable for selection.

The Seagulls pushed Liverpool close on Wednesday, but Slot will bring his biggest names back into the starting lineup for what should be a more routine win.
Slot will hope for a fast start back at Anfield, with Bayer Leverkusen coming in midweek.
Liverpool to win, 3-1.
