[Teams] Liverpool vs West Brom: Confirmed line-ups from Anfield
Liverpool will look to tighten their grip at the top of the Premier League table when they take on West Bromwich Albion at Anfield this afternoon.
Jurgen Klopp has made two changes to his starting eleven with Mohamed Salah coming in to start in attack after being rested for the 7-0 win at Crystal Palace last time out. Takumi Minamino is the man to make way as Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino keep their places in the Liverpool front three.

Jones joins Jordan Henderson and Gini Wijnaldum in the Liverpool midfield with James Milner and Xherdan Shaqiri returning to the bench after recovering from injury. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is also named among the substitutes today.
