Liverpool are back in action on Wednesday evening when they take on FC Midtjylland away from home in the Champions League.

The defending Premier League champions have already won Group D and have booked their place in the last-16 stage of Europe’s premier club competition.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is likely to field a young team and fringe players at the MCH Arena, as this is a game that does not really hold much importance.

Divock Origi is likely to lead the line for the Reds. The 25-year-old Belgium international striker – who cost the Merseyside club £10 million in transfer fee when they signed him from Lille in 2014, as reported by The Guardian – has made just two starts in the Champions League and has played only one minute in the Premier League so far this season, according to WhoScored.

Billy Koumetio could also make his debut in the Champions League for Liverpool. Described by Klopp as a “big talent” on the club’s official website in September 2020, the 18-year-old is likely to line up alongside Rhys Williams in central defence.

This is how Liverpool are likely to line up against FC Midtjylland in the Champions League on Wednesday evening:
