With one foot already in the Europa League quarter-finals, Liverpool will be looking to finish the job when they welcome Sparta Prague to Anfield for the second leg of their last-16 tie on Thursday night.
Jurgen Klopp's side cruised to 5-1 first-leg triumph over their Czech-based counterparts last week, courtesy of goals from Darwin Nunez (2), Luis Diaz, Dominik Szoboszlai and Alexis Mac Allister.
The latter of whom was also on the scoresheet in Liverpool's 1-1 draw with Premier League title rivals Manchester City on Sunday, a result that leaves them level on points with new leaders Arsenal, who sit at the summit on goal difference.
Liverpool's focus now shifts to the Europa League, and here, Sports Mole rounds up their latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest with Sparta Prague, who were thrashed 4-0 by Viktoria Plzen last weekend.
