Liverpool go into their game with Wolves on Sunday still awash with injury problems, which means Jurgen Klopp’s options are extremely limited.
Klopp’s Liverpool side took on Ajax in midweek in the Champions League, and their line-up is likely to look rather similar here.
Caoimhin Kelleher should be expected to start in goal after his heroics on Wednesday, while they could well pick the same back four.
Klopp has managed Joel Matip’s game time carefully, but he insisted he was fully fit this week and there is no real reason to expect him to be rested.
Elsewhere there has been some hope that Trent Alexander-Arnold could return soon, but this game is still likely to arrive too quickly for him, with Neco Williams set to feature at right-back.
Indeed, the only Liverpool change may happen up-front, where Diogo Jota could well come in.
Jota will surely be champing at the bit to feature against his former side, and gone are the days where Liverpool’s front three was entirely predictable.
Roberto Firmino may have played well without scoring against Ajax, but the £29 million man (BBC Sport) could well be dropped to the bench here, with the in-form Jota backed to replace him.
Predicted XI: Kelleher; Williams, Matip, Fabinho, Robertson; Wijnaldum, Jones, Henderson; Mane, Salah, Jota.
