Liverpool team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Porto

Sports Mole rounds up all of Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their Champions League clash with Porto on Wednesday.

Having already booked their place in the last 16, Liverpool resume Champions League action with a home clash against Porto in Group B on Wednesday.

The Reds qualified for the next stage after downing Atletico Madrid 2-0 last time out and previously put five goals past Porto away from home in a 5-1 drubbing.

Jurgen Klopp's men enter the contest on the back of an impressive 4-0 win over Arsenal, but the Anfield infirmary remains well-occupied.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest.

James Milner's hamstring problem kept him out of the win over Arsenal, but there is a slight chance that the midfielder could feature in midweek if he makes a swift return to team training.
