Brendan Rodgers has made eight changes to his Liverpool side for tonight's Europa League encounter against Bordeaux.
The Northern Irishman decided to leave a number of players that started the 3-1 defeat to rivals Manchester United on Saturday at home, including summer signings Christian Benteke and James Milner.
Young Belgian striker Divock Origi has benefited from the omission of his fellow countryman Benteke, while the absence of Milner has seen 18-year-old Jordan Rossiter come into the midfield.
Elsewhere, the fit again Adam Lallana has been given a starting role, while centre-back Mamadou Sakho has taken the captain's armband.
As for the Ligue 1 hosts, their attack will include Diego Rolan, who spearheaded the Uruguayan frontline at the Copa America earlier this summer.
Bordeaux: Carrasso; Gajic, Pablo, Pallois, Poundje; Chantome, Maurice-Belay, Khazri, Saivet; Rolan, Crivelli
Subs: Traore, Thelin, Poko, Vieira, Yambere, Guilbert, Prior
Liverpool: Mignolet; Gomez, Toure, Sakho, Moreno; Rossiter, Can, Ibe, Lallana, Coutinho; Origi
Subs: Bogdan, Firmino, Ings, Brannagan, Randall, Cleary, Chirivella
