Liverpool Team News

• Virgil van Dijk's suspension for his red card at Newcastle was extended by another game during the break so Joe Gomez should continue to partner Joel Matip, though Ibrahima Konate is getting closer to full fitness.

• Trent Alexander-Arnold pulled out of the England squad through injury and will be assessed by manager Jurgen Klopp before Saturday. Thiago Alcantara is in a similar position with a hip problem.

• Wataru Endo could earn his second Liverpool start at the base of the midfield with fellow summer signings Dominik Szoboszlai and Alexis Mac Allister pushing further forward.

Each squad must contain no more than 17 players who do not fulfil the league's 'homegrown' criteria.

A homegrown player is defined as 'a player who, irrespective of nationality or age, has been registered with any club affiliated to The Football Association or the Football Association of Wales for a period, continuous or not, of three entire seasons, or 36 months, before his 21st birthday (or the end of the season during which he turns 21)'.

Meanwhile, U21 players – those born on or after January 1, 2002 – do not count towards the 25-man squad limit and clubs can field as many U21 players as they wish.

Liverpool's squad list (* = homegrown player)
