After a devastating exit from the FA Cup against Manchester United, Liverpool faces the challenge of regrouping for their upcoming fixtures, including a crucial Premier League clash against Brighton & Hove Albion. 

Jurgen Klopp’s side suffered further setbacks as Darwin Nunez, Luis Diaz, and Cody Gakpo picked up injuries in the defeat to United, adding to their already lengthy injury list.

Looking ahead to their match against Brighton, Klopp will be hoping to have Ibrahima Konate and Curtis Jones available, while Ryan Gravenberch could also be in contention after being an unused substitute following his return from injury. With potential reinforcements, Klopp might consider making several changes to his lineup:

Konate’s return: With Konate expected to be fit after the international break, he could partner Virgil van Dijk in central defense, providing stability to Liverpool’s backline.

Full-back positions: The full-back positions are up for grabs, with Trent Alexander-Arnold unlikely to be ready for a return. Klopp will have to choose between Joe Gomez, Andy Robertson, Conor Bradley, and Kostas Tsimikas to fill these roles.

Mac Allister’s availability: Alexis Mac Allister’s availability could be uncertain due to his international commitments. Klopp might opt to limit his involvement if he returns late from international duty, potentially opening up a spot for Harvey Elliott or Gravenberch.

Attack options: Mohamed Salah is expected to lead Liverpool’s attack, but the availability of Nunez, Diaz, and Gakpo remains uncertain. If all three are fit, they are likely to retain their places. However, if any are unavailable, Klopp may turn to players like Elliott, Jayden Danns, or Bobby Clark to fill the void.

Injuries have undoubtedly posed challenges for Liverpool, but with key players potentially returning and options available, Klopp will be hoping to field a competitive lineup against Brighton as they aim to bounce back from their FA Cup disappointment.
