Mohamed Salah will be back in the squad for Liverpool against Brighton today, but will it prove to be his final appearance for the club?

The Egyptian's future has dominated the headlines ever since his outburst against Liverpool and head coach Arne Slot last weekend, in which he accused the club of throwing him "under the bus" and suggested that someone was trying to drive him out after being named on the bench for three straight games.

Showdown talks were held on Friday between Salah and Slot, in which it was decided that he will return to the squad as both sides aim to boost their European hopes for next season.

Here's everything you need to know about how to watch Liverpool vs Brighton in the US and UK today.

What time is kick-off?

The game kicks off at 3 pm UK time at Anfield. For fans in the US, that's 10 am Eastern Time and 7 am Pacific Time.

Early team news

There is of course the question over whether Salah will start on his return, but the Reds also face a doubt over Alexander Isak. Slot revealed he picked up a knock against Inter Milan in midweek which leaves a question over his involvement.

Federico Chiesa is hoped to return after missing the trip to Italy through illness, but Cody Gakpo and Wataru Endo remain out and are facing a few weeks on the sidelines. They look set to join the absent Jeremie Frimpong and Giovanni Leoni.

As for Brighton, the visitors are set to be boosted by the return of four of their players, including winger Kaoru Mitoma.

Fabian Hurzeler has confirmed he, along with Yasin Ayari, Tom Watson and former Red James Milner, are all back available for today's game. Solly March and Adam Webster remain out, while striker Stefanos Tzimas has been ruled out for the remainder of the season.
