Diogo Jota returns to the Liverpool starting line-up today(Image: Liverpool FC/Liverpool FC via Getty Images)

Diogo Jota makes his first Premier League start for Liverpool in four months as the leaders entertain Wolves at Anfield.

With Cody Gakpo struggling with a minor injury, Luis Diaz shuffles over to the left wing position as Jota gets the nod against his former club almost four months exactly since he limped out of a victory over Chelsea, back on October 20.

The Portugal international suffered an upper body problem when Chelsea defender Tosin Adaraiboiyo landed awkwardly on him inside the opening half hour of that 2-1 win and Jota has yet to start a game since in the league for Arne Slot's men.

Trent Alexander-Arnold returns to the side after returning as a second-half substitute in Wednesday's Merseyside derby draw with Everton.

The right-back is in the back four alongside Virgil van Dijk, Ibrahima Konate and Andy Robertson

Alexander-Arnold hadn't started the last two games having picked up a thigh injury in the victory at Bournemouth but was used off the bench in the final Merseyside derby at Goodison earlier this week.

Slot picks an unchanged midfield three from the 2-2 result at Goodison Park, with Ryan Gravenberch and Alexis Mac Allister patrolling and Dominik Szoboszlai further forward.

Federico Chiesa is named on the bench alongside Darwin Nunez while Harvey Elliott, Wataru Endo and James McConnell are the midfielders who could be called upon.

Three points for the hosts will take them back seven clear of second-place Arsenal, who beat Leicester City 2-0 in the Saturday lunchtime kick-off thanks to two goals from Mikel Merino.
