LFC

The Reds beat Bournemouth 4-0 on Saturday, however tonight’s tie against Carlo Ancelotti’s side is a completely different proposition.

Liverpool need to win 1-0 or by a clear two-goal margin should they wish to progress to the knockout stages of the Champions League, or in the unlikely scenario of a PSG loss away to Red Star Belgrade, any win will do for Klopp’s side.

The manager has made 3 changes to the side that he fielded on the south coast against Eddie Howe’s side.

Trent Alexander-Arnold, Jordan Henderson and Sadio Mane return in place of Fabinho, Naby Keita and Xherdan Shaqiri, who are named on the bench.

Liverpool: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Van Dijk, Robertson, Henderson, Milner, Wijnaldum, Salah, Firmino, Mane.

Substitutes: Mignolet, Fabinho, Lovren, Keita, Sturridge, Shaqiri, Origi.

Napoli: Ospina, Allan, Albiol, Koulibaly, Rui, Callejon, Ruiz, Mertens, Hamsik, Maksimovic, Insigne.

Substitutes: Karnezis, Ounas, Zielinski, Hysaj, Ghoulam, Diawara, Milik.
