What is the early Atletico vs Liverpool team news?

Liverpool are boosted by the return of Brazilian duo Fabinho and Alisson Becker. The pair flew straight to Madrid following the international break.

Fabinho's return is likely to be in place of either Naby Keita or James Milner.

Atletico could welcome back Jose Giminez, Matheus Cunha, and Marcos Llorente.

Stefan Savic is out due to suspension meaning Diego Simeone has to come up with a solution to his defensive difficulties.

Should Giminez be deemed unfit to start, midfielder Geoffrey Kondogbia is likely to fill in at centre-back.
