The corner is chipped to the near post and hits a man before dropping. Andy Robertson is first to it though and hammers the ball clear.

Brighton win a corner. This lead is looking very slim.

This is clear cut. Sadio Mane moved too early and is clearly offside when the free-kick is taken.

Still life in the game yet.

Brighton 0-2 Liverpool

Don't think this is going to count.

Colin Bundred: These guys are going down like flies, it’s a bit ridiculous. They need to look at other sports, rugby, ice hockey etc. Much more physical sports with far fewer injuries.

Ayoade Oluwasanmi: If they’re dropping like flies with injuries now, what’s going to happen during the Christmas and New Year period?

Taylor Moyes: The last player I remember to hit the ground running with a new team like this was when Diego Costa joined Chelsea.

Diogo Jota is left in a heap by a challenge from Ben White, who got the ball but gets a yellow card regardless.

Oh, well done Andy Robertson. Solly March's cross from the left swings in front of Alireza Jahanbakhsh (who should get a goalbound touch but fails) and would be an easy tap in for Welbeck, but the Liverpool defender is there to lift the ball over his own bar.

Curtis Jones is playing at right-back. Showing his versatility.

This is getting silly now. Phillips is down and looking groggy after a tumble. Liverpool aren't gonna have a defender on the pitch at this rate. Wonder what Jurgen will want to talk about after this?

Phillips eases his manager's blood pressure by returning to the action after some treatment.

Dr Damian Fogarty: Really Graham Potter? Taking off Connolly, your biggest threat. Time will tell but surely Lallana & Connolly were the chance to get even.

Sho: Connolly coming off makes zero sense. Liverpool defenders struggling massively with his pace.

Phil Bayley: A player who hit the ground running as well as Jota? I guess you'd have to go deep into football history to find the name Bruno Fernandes.

John Stones starts for Manchester City as boss Pep Guardiola makes three changes to the side that lost to Tottenham in the Premier League last time out.

The defender makes his first Premier League start since 21 September, when City beat Wolves 3-1.

Also coming in are Ilkay Gundogan and Benjamin Mendy. All three players started in the 1-0 win against Olympiakos in midweek.

Man City XI: Ederson, Walker, Dias, Stones, Mendy, Gundogan, Rodrigo, Mahrez, De Bruyne, Torres, Jesus.

Subs: Steffen, Sterling, Silva, Fernandinho, Cancelo, Foden, Garcia.

Burnley also make three changes as 20-year-old midfielder Josh Benson makes his Premier League debut for the Clarets.

Bailey Peacock-Farrell also makes his league debut for the club as he replaces Nick Pope in goal after Pope was injured in the win against Crystal Palace last-time out. Ashley Barnes is the other player to come into the side.

Burnley XI: Peacock-Farrell, Lowton, Mee, Tarkowski, Taylor, Westwood, Benson, Rodriguez, Barnes, McNeil, Wood.

Subs: Norris, Gudmundsson, Pieters, Vydra, Long, Dunne, Goodridge.

Yep, Milner is done for the day. Curtis Jones is replacing him. Will he play at right-back?

Dropping like flies. James Milner is down now and doesn't look in a good way. Looks like a muscle injury.

Who will play in defence for Liverpool if he has to go off?

Lallana really can't catch a break. On in the 63rd minute, off in the 70th. His body just keeps letting him down.

Alireza Jahanbakhsh is the replacement.

Roberto Firmino has a go from the edge of the box but his shot is deflected wide by Solly March. The Reds are unable to make anything of the corner.

No sign of a response yet from Brighton, who looked to have been rocked by that Liverpool goal. They try to release Welbeck, but Fabinho is well-placed to intercept.

Matthew Chapman: At last!

Tambuwal: He scores when he wants… Joooooooooooooooooo you beauty!

Abdul Momodu: Jota, what a fantastic acquisition for Liverpool. He wasn’t a spectacular player in that Wolves team but he has done more in this star-studded Liverpool team.
