The spotlight is on Trent Alexander-Arnold, whose participation remains uncertain due to a hamstring injury. With a tight schedule, Klopp might reserve him for the weekend clash against Spurs. Thiago Alcantara’s absence continues to baffle, and young full-back Conor Bradley is confirmed to miss the action. Joe Gomez is likely to step up, with potential game time for youngsters like Ben Doak, Stefan Bajcetic, Jarell Quansah, and Bobby Clark.
Leicester City, despite losing key players like Harvey Barnes, James Maddison, and Youri Tielemans post-relegation, are in formidable form, leading the Championship. They aim to make a statement against Liverpool, signalling their imminent return to the Premier League.
