With Chelsea not playing until Saturday evening, Liverpool have the chance to regain top spot in the Premier League when they face Sunderland at 3pm.
The Reds will know what they have to do in order to go top with Manchester City playing away at Burnley in the early kick off.
Jurgen Klopp has almost a full squad to choose from, with Adam Lallana the only notable absentee.
The midfielder was injured on international duty and missed the draw with his former side Southampton and it looks like this game has come too soon for him too.
Jurgen Klopp must decide whether he wants to pair Emre Can and Gini Wijnaldum in front of Jordan Henderson in his midfield or if he’d rather drop Philippe Coutinho into a deeper role, move Roberto Firmino out wide and start Daniel Sturridge up front.
Joe Gomez made his return to competitive action in midweek in an U23 game but he’s unlikely to make the bench at this stage.
