- Noni Madueke is a doubt for the home side, though Mauricio Pochettino is well stocked for wingers.
- Summer signings Axel Disasi and Nicolas Jackson are set to start, while youngster Carney Chukwuemeka is set to feature in the number 10 role.
- Central midfielders Thiago and Stefan Bajcetic miss out for Liverpool.
- Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai have joined to bolster the midfield, but the Reds are still short of options in a key area following a number of summer exits.
- Jurgen Klopp has an abundance of attacking options at his disposal.
