Liverpool have their final Champions League group stage outing on their travels to San Siro and take on AC Milan come Tuesday night.
Jurgen Klopp’s Merseyside men stand assured already of their spot in the last 16 of the competition but their forthcoming opponents are involved in a three-way contest for staking claim to the second place in Group B.
The Reds picked up a thrilling win over the weekend in league action against Wolves with Divock Origi’s stoppage-time winner sealing the three points for the visitors to the Molineux.
Klopp is likely to rotate his team sheet in the midweek outing with Liverpool set to face club icon Steven Gerrard and his Aston Villa side in the Premier League later this week.
