Nathaniel Phillips is named in the starting line-up for Liverpool's clash with West Ham United this afternoon.

The centre-back comes in for Joel Matip for the Premier League encounter at London Stadium as the champions make three changes from the midweek win at Tottenham Hotspur.

Sadio Mane is absent due to a minor muscle injury, which is expected to be only a short-term issue, while Roberto Firmino is also replaced, with Xherdan Shaqiri and Divock Origi restored to the XI.

Liverpool: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Phillips, Henderson, Robertson, Wijnaldum, Milner, Thiago, Shaqiri, Salah, Origi.

Subs: Adrian, Kelleher, Firmino, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Jones, Minamino, Tsimikas, R. Williams, N. Williams.
