Klopp is sweating on the fitness of Joe Gomez and Ragnar Klavan, with both players doubts for the game.

He told the club's website: "Our squad shape is OK in the moment, but we have a few things we are not too sure about. Joe needs to have a test tonight.

"We should be OK more or less – pretty much the only one who is completely out of the game on the plane is Emre Can because of his suspension. Raggy is good and he's fit.

"I don't know yet if he'll [Gomez] be available on Wednesday, but I think he has a chance.

"All he's done so far has looked good, but it's all been about waiting for the reaction. I saw him this morning, he looked good as well.

"We have a session tonight and tomorrow morning, so it depends on how he looks in training and then I will start thinking about it. I don't want to make pressure or rush him; it would be cool if he is available but we will see."
