Reece James has recovered from hamstring injury and could come straight back into the team for the first time since Boxing Day. Lampard will choose between Jorginho and Billy Gilmour to replace Kante, while Kai Havertz will hope for his first Premier League start since before Christmas after scoring in last week’s FA Cup third-round win against Morecambe.
Sir Alex Ferguson has explained that Manchester United failed to sign Jordan Henderson over fears about potential future injury problems - but says the Liverpool captain has clearly proved his doubters wrong.

Jose Mourinho, the Tottenham manager, has refused to be drawn on whether he would allow Dele Alli to leave the club this month. Alli is wanted by Mauricio Pochettino's Paris Saint-Germain after falling out of favour under Mourinho but Spurs are reluctant to sanction a loan move mid-season.

Manchester United legend Sir Alex Ferguson believes he got out of management at exactly the right time due to Liverpool's "phenomenal" rise to become Premier League champions.
