Liverpool has bolstered its Champions League squad with two fresh faces ahead of Wednesday's clash with Atletico Madrid at Anfield, as per UEFA's official website.
The Reds' roster for the opening league phase fixture of the season now includes 24 players.
Woodman is poised to make his first appearance in a Liverpool matchday squad following his free transfer from Championship team Preston.
UEFA's rules allow clubs to name 12 substitutes for matches, three more than the Premier League permits.
Curtis Jones appears to be the one who'll miss out after head coach Arne Slot confirmed in his pre-match press conference that the midfielder won't be able to play, despite being scheduled to train with the team again on Wednesday before the Atletico game.
Despite this, he still features on the official squad list, although an icon indicates that he is injured.
A similar image next to Alexis Mac Allister's name suggests that he is doubtful.
Arne Slot is aiming to win the Champions League
Despite a preseason back injury, the striker has made two appearances for the U21s last month.
His potential inclusion could impact the playing time of new signing Alexander Isak, suggesting that he may not be a constant feature on the pitch.
Arne Slot, Liverpool's manager, has already confirmed that the new signing won't play the full 90 minutes tonight.
However, Slot did acknowledge that "there is definitely a chance" that the Swedish international will make his debut against Atletico.
Slot said: "There is definitely a chance, because he is in the squad
The only thing that is sure is he will not play 90, and all the rest you will see tomorrow."
