Coming into the clash, however, two players will be walking a disciplinary tightrope for Liverpool.

To avoid a suspension, both players will need to get through the next four matches without picking up another caution.

Ibrahima Konate is another who has received four yellow cards this season, but he remains on the sidelines with a knee injury.
