Injuries
Salah’s hamstring injury and Mane’s broken thumb have given injury expert Ben Dinnery a busy week. It looks to be a player led decision on whether Mane feels he can play this weekend, after undergoing surgery earlier this week.
Klopp says Virgil van Dijk has "no problems" with his ribs anymore. Mane, Salah and Milner have all trained – Keita is the only serious doubt. #LFC
