Cody Gakpo is not involved in Liverpool's Premier League clash with Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium, where Jurgen Klopp makes three changes.

The Dutch attacker officially completed his £37m move from PSV Eindhoven on Sunday but was not expected to make his debut tonight while Liverpool complete the paperwork.

As a result, Gakpo is set to make his first appearance for the club against Wolverhampton Wanderers in the FA Cup at the weekend, leaving Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain to once again start up top alongside Mohamed Salah and Darwin Nunez.

Roberto Firmino has not been passed fit for the match, but Harvey Elliott has shaken off a knock to join Thiago Alcantara and Fabinho, who returns after the birth of his child. Jordan Henderson, meanwhile, is nowhere to be seen due to a reported concussion.

Klopp also makes two changes at the back, as Ibrahima Konate replaces Joel Matip and Andy Robertson - who came off injured against Leicester City but still makes the bench - cedes his spot to Kostas Tsimikas.

Meanwhile, Brentford striker Ivan Toney is out after coming off on a stretcher in the Bees' win over West Ham United, as Yoane Wissa comes in to partner Bryan Mbeumo up front, while Vitaly Janelt returns in midfield for Josh Dasilva.
