The French defender joins Dejan Lovren at the heart of the Reds’ defence at Selhurst Park, while there’s also a berth for Jon Flanagan at right-back.

Elsewhere, Divock Origi will spearhead the attack, while Daniel Sturridge returns to the matchday squad and is on the bench.

Liverpool: Mignolet, Flanagan, Lovren, Sakho, Moreno, Can, Henderson, Milner, Lallana, Firmino, Origi. Subs: Ward, Clyne, Toure, Benteke, Coutinho, Sturridge, Allen.
