Liverpool vs Brighton: Confirmed Lineups – Solanke Starts, Emre Can Out Longer Than Expected

Liverpool take on Brighton in their final game of the season knowing that they could let a top-four finish slip unless they avoid defeat.

Despite reaching the Champions League final, the Reds have not exactly been in the best of form.

Jurgen Klopp has seen his team win just one of their last five games across all competitions.

The Reds are without a win in three matches in the league but have not lost at home this season.

A point could be enough for the Reds depending on how Chelsea fare against Newcastle United.

The Reds would of course be guaranteed Champions League football if they end up beating Real Madrid in the final but a top-four finish would wrap things up beforehand.

Mohamed Salah needs just one more goal to break the record for the most scored in a 38-game Premier League campaign and will have the chance to as Klopp has given him a start.

Sadio Mane was a doubt heading into the game but did end up getting the nod.

Adam Lallana has returned from injury and has been named on the bench.

Midfielder of Turkish origin Emre Can remains out on the sidelines.
