Ian Doyle - Konate comes back in defence
It's another airing for the Europa League anthem at Anfield this evening which, while not as good as the Champions League tune, is certainly a marked improvement on the Premier League abomination. Atalanta of Italy are in town for the quarter-final first leg with Liverpool still competing on two fronts. What, then, is Jurgen Klopp to do?
There will be changes, but not in goal. That's Caoimhin Kelleher. Alisson Becker, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Diogo Jota may all be back in some form of training, but it's too early for any of them to be considered for a start.
Joe Gomez can come in at right-back with Ibrahima Konate replacing Jarell Quansah as partner to skipper Virgil van Dijk at centre-back. Andy Robertson can have another go at left-back.

Ruben Amorim hits back at Liverpool claim in passionate response to agreement rumours
Wataru Endo has had a few injury niggles of late but should stay as the defensive midfielder, with in-form Alexis Mac Allister to his left. However, Harvey Elliott merits a start, and should replace Dominik Szoboszlai on the right side of the engine room.
Up top, Cody Gakpo has waited for a start and can begin down the middle, with Mohamed Salah to his right and Luis Diaz on the left. With Szoboszlai, Quansah, Darwin Nunez, Curtis Jones, Kostas Tsimikas and probably Alexander-Arnold and Jota on the bench, suddenly there are plenty of senior options.
My team (4-3-3): Kelleher; Bradley, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Endo, Elliott, Mac Allister; Salah, Gakpo, Diaz.
