The Reds tightened their grip on third place after a 1-0 win against Watford last Monday.

Liverpool have a great opportunity to take another step towards a top-three finish considering five-placed Manchester United will take on sixth-placed Arsenal tomorrow.

Reds head coach Jurgen Klopp is expected to welcome back Adam Lallana who made a return from a thigh-injury against Watford last week.
