The Reds head into the after a string of uncharacteristic results in recent weeks, with the champions missing several opportunities to consolidate their lead at the top of the table.

They endured yet another frustrating evening against on Monday, with Jurgen Klopp's side failing to register a shot on target until the 75th minute as they fell to a drab 1-0 defeat.

A trip to the ground where the Reds suffered their worst Premier League defeat earlier this season comes at a tricky time. But Jurgen Klopp's side couldn't need any more motivation to put things right.

Both sides are expected to name heavily rotated lineups, with Villa set to name a team full of youth players after a coronavirus outbreak swept through their training ground this week.

Whilst domestic cup competitions have never been high on Klopp's agenda, a Liverpool to get back on track is sorely needed.

Liverpool remain without six players, including Joel Matip and Naby Keita, but the Reds' current injury situation is an improvement from earlier on this season.

Thiago made his first start since October during Monday night's defeat and he could get another few valuable minutes on the pitch as he looks to step up his match fitness.

But it's likely to be a night off for at least a handful of senior stars, with Klopp set to give his youngsters a run out considering the circumstances of the tie.
