His back four consists of: Trent Alexander Arnold, Joe Gomez, Virgil van Dijk And Andy Robertson.

Ryan Gravenberch maintains his place in midfield as an ever-present player in the Champions League Dominik Szoboszlai And Curtis Jones further ahead as Alexis Mac Allister serves a suspension.

Left-back James Norris is playing in the Champions League for the first time, as is midfielder James McConnell, who is back with the first team after a long-term ankle injury.
