Alisson picked up an injury in the Champions League midweek and Mamardashvili is therefore expected to get a chance to impress in the next couple of games."We know Ali is a big loss because, for me, he’s the best ‘keeper in the world," Gravenberch admitted to Liverpool's official website."But we know with Giorgi, he showed already what quality he has.

Since then, the games have mainly been draws, while Enzo Maresca's men got a victory in May when the Premier League title was wrapped up.It would be a big boost for the Reds if they could change that today.Enzo Maresca (Image: Darren Walsh/Chelsea FC via Getty Images)09:46Matt AddisonHugo Ekitike on Mohamed SalahSpeaking to the BBC ahead of today's game with Chelsea, Hugo Ekitike has outlined his thoughts on Mohamed Salah."He is very cool," he said.
