Liverpool vs Nottingham Forest lineups, team news
Klopp will assess his squad options ahead of the trip to Nottingham with a host of players still on the sidelines including Diogo Jota, Alisson and Trent Alexander-Arnold.
The reason for Klopp naming so many young players against Southampton was to protect returning stars. Darwin Nunez and Dominik Szoboszlai resumed training on Thursday and Andy Robertson is expected to shake off a sickness bug. However, Mohamed Salah (hamstring) remains absent.
Liverpool projected XI (4-3-3 right to left): Kelleher (GK) — Bradley, Konate, van Dijk, Robertson — Szoboszlai, Mac Allister, Clark — Elliott, Nunez, Diaz.
Liverpool subs (9): TBC
Nuno Espirito Santo is still without five players through injury with Ola Aina, Ibrahim Sangare and Willy Boly amongst those absent for the home side following their Africa Cup of Nations returns.
Nottingham Forest projected XI (4-2-3-1, right to left): Sels (GK) — Williams, Murillo, Monteiro, Toffolo — Danilo, Kouyate — Elanga, Gibbs-White, Hudson-Odoi — Awoniyi.
Nottingham Forest subs (9): TBC
