Mohamed Salah and Thiago Alcantara are among the Liverpool players dropped to the bench for their Champions League Group A clash with Rangers at Ibrox.

Mohamed Salah and Thiago Alcantara are among the Liverpool players to have been dropped to the bench for their Champions League Group A clash with Rangers at Ibrox.

The Reds have made a total of six changes for the showdown with Giovanni van Bronckhorst's side, with Joel Matip, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Luis Diaz all missing out with injuries.

Salah and Thiago have also been cut from the first XI alongside Diogo Jota, with Jurgen Klopp factoring in Sunday's Premier League clash with Manchester City, as Roberto Firmino and Fabio Carvalho rejoin Darwin Nunez up front.

Jordan Henderson retains his place in the middle, where Fabinho and Harvey Elliott also earn recalls as Klopp reverts to his tried-and-tested 4-3-3 setup for the European encounter.

Following injuries to Alexander-Arnold and Matip, there are no surprises in the backline, as Ibrahima Konate and Joe Gomez are drafted in alongside Virgil van Dijk, Kostas Tsimikas and Alisson Becker.

Andrew Robertson is fit enough for a place on the bench after recovering from injury, as Liverpool aim to move to within one point of qualification for the Champions League knockout stages.

Rangers starting lineup: McGregor; Tavernier, Goldson, Davies, Barisic; Jack, Lundstram, Arfield; Sakala, Colak, Kent

Subs: McCrorie, McLaughlin, Yilmaz, Davis, Matondo, Sands, Morelos, Wright, King, Devine, Tillman

Liverpool starting lineup: Alisson; Gomez, Konate, Van Dijk, Tsimikas; Elliott, Fabinho, Henderson; Carvalho, Firmino, Nunez

Subs: Adrian, Kelleher, Bajcetic, Phillips, Robertson, Thiago, Milner, Salah, Jota
