As mentioned in the tweet, Liverpool are unchanged for the third time in a row.
Alisson starts between the sticks, with Andy Robertson, Virgil Van Dijk, Joe Gomez and Trent Alexander-Arnold lining up in front of him.
James Milner, Georginio Wijnaldum and Naby Keita feature in midfield while the hosts’ 4-3-3 is complete with the formidable attack triumvirate of Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah.

The Seagulls, still on a high after their surprise win over Manchester United last week, seem to be trotting out in a 4-4-1-1 formation.
Glenn Murray starts at the tip of their attack and has Yves Bissouma for support.
Solly March, Davy Propper, Dale Stephens and Anthony Knockaert feature in midfield while Gaetan Bong, Leon Balogun, Shane Duffy and Martin Montoya start ahead of custodian Matthew Ryan.
Liverpool are overwhelming favourites to clinch three points and they will have extra incentive to secure the win after defending champions Manchester City slipped up at Wolves earlier in the day.
Brighton, as mentioned earlier, stunned United last week, but surely two giant killings in a span of seven days is too much to ask?
At Anfield, the Reds are almost invincible so it will take the Seagulls to play the game of their lives if they are to even come away with a point from their trip to Merseyside.
Liverpool: Alisson, Robertson, van Dijk, Gomez, Alexander-Arnold, Keita, Milner (C), Wijnaldum, Mane, Salah and Firmino.
Brighton & Hove Albion: Ryan, Bong, Balogun, Duffy, Montoya, March, Propper, Stephens (C), Knockaert, Bissouma and Murray.
