Liverpool squad for Manchester United revealed with several players absent

Jurgen Klopp and the Liverpool players have arrived at their hotel in Manchester ahead of tonight’s match.

The Reds take on Man United at Old Trafford this evening in the rearranged Premier League clash, which was originally due to take place earlier this month.

A place in the top four just about remains in Liverpool's reach, with tonight's clash against their arch rivals one of the four remaining fixtures of the campaign.

Seven points separate the Reds and fourth-placed Chelsea, with Liverpool having two games in hand.

Liverpool have several injury concerns going into tonight's contest at Old Trafford, with some more recent while others are long-term.

Virgil van Dijk, Joe Gomez and Jordan Henderson remained sidelined, with the latter facing a tough task to get fit before the end of the season.

Ozan Kabak is set to be ruled out for the match, and was not pictured arriving off the team bus in Manchester.

The same goes for Naby Keita and Ben Davies, who each missed the win over Southampton at the weekend with ‘minor injury concerns’.

Ben Woodburn - who made the bench against Saints - was once again seen with the squad.

Sadio Mane and Nat Phillips were not pictured in initial images, but are still expected to be available for the travelling squad.

James Milner and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain were also not seen in this batch of photos, and it remains to be seen what their situations are for tonight.

Liverpool’s provisional squad to face Man United

Alisson, Kelleher, Adrian; R.Williams, Tsimikas, Robertson, Alexander-Arnold, Phillips, N.Williams; Wijnaldum, Thiago, Fabinho, Jones, Oxlade-Chamberlain; Shaqiri, Mane, Salah, Firmino, Jota, Woodburn.
