Liverpool are set to face off against round of 16 opponents Sparta Prague shortly in the Europa League.

Jurgen Klopp has handed bench starts to several key starts, including returned Egyptian King Mo Salah and fellow returnee Dominik Szoboszlai.

The Merseysiders will be keen to rotate their options ahead of a critical league meeting with Manchester City at Anfield this coming weekend.

The Sky Blues will no doubt be monitoring the condition of Jeremy Doku ahead of the trip to L4.
