Predicted Liverpool XI: Salzburg (A)

Liverpool will look to qualify for the Champions League knockout stage when they visit Salzburg on Tuesday evening.

The situation of the group is such that the Reds need a draw from this game in order to cement their place in the last-16.

A win would be an added bonus, but a defeat may put them on the brink of elimination – a Napoli victory at home to Genk on top of that would see the European champions knocked out.

Jurgen Klopp’s men are facing a Salzburg side who have to win this game to stand a chance for qualification, so they are expected to go all out looking to beat Liverpool.

The reverse fixture at Anfield turned out to be a tricky game for Liverpool, despite them leading 3-0 at one point, and will have to play well in order to get a positive result.

In terms of team news, Dejan Lovren and Gini Wijnaldum trained with the squad ahead of their trip to Austria, but Adam Lallana is a doubt for the game with a minor niggle.

Long-term absentees Joel Matip and Fabinho are still missing.

Here’s how we think Klopp may line his team up for this game…
