For many of Liverpool's staff and squad, there will be a chance to recuperate over the next two weeks during a 'winter' break but for some they will be on their travels again to represent their nations.

The Reds next fixture is the FA Cup fourth round tie against Championship team Cardiff City at Anfield on Sunday, 6th February.

It has been a busy and intense period for Jurgen Klopp and his team as they have had to deal with absences due to the Africa Cup of Nations and injuries.

The team have performed well however despite missing key players, keeping in touch with Manchester City at the top of the table and securing a place in the Carabao Cup final where they will face Chelsea at the end of next month.

Prior to the Cardiff match, there are still a number of International matches involving members of Klopp's squad and we can bring you the fixtures.
