Liverpool team news:
Reds boss Jurgen Klopp is missing several key names heading into tonight’s crucial encounter.
Germany international Emre Can has been ruled out with a back injury he picked up last month. The 24-year-old may have already played his last game for the Reds with his contract expiring this summer.
Meanwhile, Adam Lallana is out with a thigh injury while defender Joel Mapid is also sidelined due to injury.
Defender Joe Gomez is a slight doubt despite featuring over the weekend while Nathaniel Clyne is a doubt.
Club captain Jordan Henderson missed the second leg against Man City, but is expected to return in a three-man midfield alongside James Milner and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.
Klopp is also expected to stick with his tried and tested front three combination of Mo Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane.
