Liverpool starting XI against Villa
Midfielder Ryan Gravenberch is available again for Liverpool, after missing three games with a twisted ankle.
Goalkeeper Alisson Becker, defenders Jeremie Frimpong and Giovanni Leoni, midfielder Curtis Jones and striker Alexander Isak are absent.
“They weren’t all in good shape from the start [of the season]” said manager Arne Slot about the challenges he faced due to injuries and availability.
“Some players have to play maybe even more than you would like, which puts them at risk of injury.
“But that’s just the situation as it is and we still have enough good players available to play. [twice a week].”
Liverpool starting eleven: Mamardashvili; Van Dijk, Konate, Bradley, Robertson; Szoboszlai, Mac Allister, Gravenberch; Salah, Gakpo, Ekitike
Liverpool substitutes: Woodman, Pecsi, Gomez, Endo, Kerkez, Wirtz, Chiesa, Nyoni, Ngumoha
Aston Villa starting XI against Liverpool
Midfielder Emiliano Buendia scored Villa’s winner at Tottenham but suffered an injury during the match which manager Unai Emery hopes will be short-lived.
The Spaniard expects playmaker Youri Tielemans to return to training next week, but said wide player Andres Garcia is “a few weeks” away from a return.
Full-back Matty Cash scored the winner from distance against Man City and signed a contract until 2029 this week.
