"[Diogo] Jota, [Harvey] Elliott and Alisson are not. I'm also not expecting Federico [Chiesa] to be in the squad for tomorrow. It is difficult to say with him he's up and down a bit.

"He trains a few days then goes out again. I don't want to put days or weeks on it. We just want him to be in the best possible shape so no pressure on him."

Wednesday's clash is part of a double-header with Brighton this week, with Liverpool welcoming the Seagulls to Anfield in Premier League action on Saturday after their cup showdown in midweek.
