Liverpool confirmed team news: Diaz on the bench; Gomez starting at left-back vs Luton
Luton Town’s rise up the pyramid to the Premier League has been the stuff of dreams and fairy tales, but Liverpool will be hoping to hand the hosts another stark reality check this afternoon.
The Merseysiders arrive at The Kenny having already arrested a very brief slump in results courtesy of a contentious defeat to Tottenham and a share of the spoils with Brighton.
A win here in Bedfordshire would see Jurgen Klopp’s men leapfrog both Arsenal (having already played) and Spurs in the table.

It’s a completely changed midfield three as expected, with Dominik Szoboszlai, Alexis Mac Allister and Ryan Gravenberch starting at Kenilworth Road.
Mo Salah retains his spot on the right of the front-three and is supported centrally and on the left flank by Darwin Nunez and Diogo Jota.
