Liverpool face a daunting task tonight to try and overturn their heavy Europa League quarter-final deficit against Atalanta.

The Reds were dismantled 3-0 at Anfield last Thursday in a huge shock for Jurgen Klopp’s side, who then lost ground in the Premier League title race by falling to another surprise defeat at home to Crystal Palace on Sunday.

Klopp has not gone completely full strength for the trip to Italy, with his team needing to catch up domestically when they travel to Fulham this weekend ahead of a midweek Merseyside derby.

Alisson made his comeback in the Palace defeat and so continues in goal.

Conor Bradley came off injured on Sunday and has not travelled, meaning Trent Alexander-Arnold makes his first start since February this evening.

Diogo Jota is available again too, but is on the bench, with Cody Gakpo getting the nod in attack over the Portuguese and Darwin Nunez.
