Liverpool XI vs Norwich: Confirmed team news, starting lineup and injury latest for Premier League today

Liverpool are without Diogo Jota when Norwich travel to Anfield this afternoon.

The Portuguese striker was substituted at half-time of the win at Inter Milan and his absence means that new signing Luis Diaz starts alongside Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane for the first time.

However, Trent Alexander-Arnold misses out, potentially being rested, while Roberto Firmino is unavailable with a muscle injury.

Elsewhere, Joel Matip returns to the starting lineup having been replaced by Ibrahima Konate during the week as Jurgen Klopp prepares for a hectic schedule.

The next eight days offer up three matches, including the Carabao Cup final against Chelsea and the Liverpool boss will have to rely heavily on his squad.

Jordan Henderson and Naby Keita all came off the bench against Inter and are turned to from the off this time around, given the schedule ahead.

Starting XI: Alisson, Gomez, Matip, Van Dijk, Tsimikas, Henderson, Keita, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Mane, Diaz, Salah.

Subs: Kelleher, Fabinho, Konate, Thiago, Milner, Minamino, Robertson, Origi, Elliott.
