However, Liverpool have had their injury troubles this season, with Trent Alexander-Arnold, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Joe Gomez among their long-term absentees for much of this season.

Virgil van Dijk will also be suspended for the first leg against Bayern, but the Daily Mirror have some more positive news as they state Dejan Lovren is working extra hard to recover in time for the clash.

The Mirror also quote Klopp as easing worries over midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum, who sat out training after an illness, but who seems to have recovered.

While Lovren has not always been the most reliable performer, LFC could really do with him back due to the absence of both Van Dijk and Gomez.

And the Mirror report that he’s trying to recover from his hamstring injury by receiving specialist treatment in his native Croatia.
