Team news: Confirmed Liverpool line-up v Manchester City

Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino start for Liverpool in the Community Shield clash with Manchester City this afternoon.

They’re joined by Divock Origi in attack, while elsewhere Joe Gomez begins in central defence alongside Virgil van Dijk.

James Milner is ruled out of the game as a precaution due to a tight muscle.

Liverpool: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Van Dijk, Robertson, Fabinho, Henderson, Wijnaldum, Origi, Salah, Firmino.

Subs: Mignolet, Lovren, Keita, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Lallana, Shaqiri, Matip.
