Early team news
Liverpool should make plenty of changes for this match and Slot has already confirmed that Kelleher will start because Alisson Becker is not yet back from his muscle injury. Harvey Elliott is the only other player currently sidelined.
Kostas Tsimikas, Joe Gomez, Jarell Quansah and Conor Bradley should all have a good chance of playing in the back four. In midfield, Curtis Jones and Wataru Endo should have a very good chance of starting and Trey Nyoni might get some minutes too.
Federico Chiesa isn't ready to play the full 90 minutes yet but he could start. Diogo Jota will hope to come back into the side after he dropped out for Darwin Nunez at the weekend while Cody Gakpo is likely to play off the left.
