Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at how Liverpool could line up for Sunday's Premier League clash with Brentford.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp must work around the absence of Alexis Mac Allister for Sunday's Premier League battle with Brentford at Anfield.

The Argentina international picked up his fifth yellow card of the league season in last weekend's 1-1 draw with Luton Town, ruling him out of the visit of the Bees through suspension.

Mac Allister joins Curtis Jones (hamstring), Andrew Robertson (shoulder), Stefan Bajcetic (calf) and Thiago Alcantara (hip) on the Reds' list of absentees, while Virgil van Dijk (illness) and Ryan Gravenberch (knee) also missed Thursday's Europa League loss to Toulouse.

However, Klopp expects Van Dijk's immune system to prevail in time for the weekend, as the captain prepares to rejoin Ibrahima Konate in front of Alisson Becker, who will demote Caoimhin Kelleher back down to the bench.

Trent Alexander-Arnold will also return to his rightful place in the side, and while Kostas Tsimikas made a costly error for Toulouse's opener before being taken off at the break, he may be given the nod over Joe Gomez after the Englishman played every minute in midweek.

Mac Allister's absence should see Wataru Endo start as Liverpool's number six, while there is hope that Gravenberch will recover from his knee issue in time to join the Japan international and Dominik Szoboszlai in the engine room.

None of Ben Doak, Luis Diaz or Cody Gakpo lasted the full 90 on Thursday, and Klopp will likely freshen up his attack with the reintroductions of Mohamed Salah, Darwin Nunez and Diogo Jota, whose late goal at Stadium Municipal counted for nought.

Liverpool possible starting lineup: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Tsimikas; Gravenberch, Endo, Szoboszlai; Salah, Nunez, Jota
