Roberto Firmino has been left out of Liverpool's squad for their Friday Night Football clash against Huddersfield, but Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is included.
Firmino misses out with injury and is replaced up front by Daniel Sturridge - making his first Premier League start since December 5 - while Oxlade-Chamberlain is on the bench, having not played for the first team since suffering a knee injury against Roma on April 24, 2018.
Liverpool will be looking to return to the top of the Premier League table after seeing Manchester City win at Manchester United in midweek. Dejan Lovren also returns to the side in place of Joel Matip at centre-back.
Aaron Mooy misses out for Huddersfield, who are already relegated, and is replaced by Jon Gorenc Stankovic. Elias Kachunga drops to the bench, with Karlan Grant starting.
