James Milner was dropped to the bench as Jurgen Klopp stuck with the same midfield for Liverpool's crucial Super Sunday clash against Chelsea.
Andrew Robertson returned from suspension at left-back but though Milner was available for selection in the middle, Klopp retained Fabinho, Naby Keita and Jordan Henderson for the Anfield showdown.
In the other of two Liverpool changes, Dejan Lovren made way for Joel Matip.
Chelsea recalled Eden Hazard for the trip after he was only used as a substitute against Slavia Prague in midweek.
But Maurizio Sarri left Gonzalo Higuain and Olivier Giroud on the bench, instead starting Callum Hudson-Odoi and Willian in attack with Hazard.
