Alisson Becker will continue between the posts, and in defence, Slot could stick with the same four that started the match with the Foxes, although Kostas Tsimikas could replace Andy Robertson after the Greek's return from injury.

With Szoboszlai absent, the Liverpool Head Coach must decide whether the midfield trio of Ryan Gravenberch, Alexis Mac Allister and Curtis Jones are ready to go again. If not, Wataru Endo and Harvey Elliott are ready and waiting.

Luis Diaz should return in attack, with Diogo Jota also pushing for a return after his chest injury.
