The newly crowned EFL Cup champions Liverpool welcome Norwich City to Anfield on Wednesday night for the fourth round fixture of the FA Cup.
Jurgen Klopp’s men emerged winners against Chelsea in an evenly contested affair last time around on Sunday with Liverpool clinching the Carabao Cup trophy courtesy of the penalty shootout drama.
Norwich City, meanwhile, went down 2-0 to Southampton with the latter claiming a convincing win over Norwich who fail to get the results that had been intended when Dean Smith took over the top job at Carrow Road.
