Having already secured qualification to the Last-16 of the UEFA Champions League, Klopp’s men travel to Denmark for their final group stage fixture away at Midtjylland.
The reverse fixture earlier in the competition between the two sides saw the Merseysiders run a riot of their Danish opponents with a 7-0 scoreline in what was total domination enjoyed by Liverpool FC at their home turf.
Fresh on the back of a 4-0 win over Wolves in the weekend league showdown at Anfield, Jurgen Klopp’s side will be looking forward to finishing their group stage journey in Europe’s premier club competition on the high with a convincing showing when going up against Midtjylland.

TEAM NEWS
Trent Alexander Arnold returned to the pitch for the first time in a month during Sunday’s fixture against Wolves and the Englishman could be in awarded a start come Wednesday as Neco Williams’ extended run of first-team involvement looks set to conclude with Arnold’s return from a hamstring blow.
Gini Wijnaldum and Andy Robertson are two players who have barely been afforded any rest in between the tiresome fixture list for the Reds, however, Klopp could be induced to rest the duo in favour of bringing in Naby Keita as Wijnaldum’s replacement in the centre of the park.
Robertson’s cover in the XI is most likely to be provided by the summer signing Kostas Tsimikas as the former’s fitness levels are often a source of major concern for Klopp owing to him being a permanent fixture in the Liverpool FC lineup.
