Liverpool team news and line-up: Jurgen Klopp hands two academy stars debuts vs Wolves

Jurgen Klopp makes nine changes to his Liverpool line-up as attentions turn to the FA Cup this evening, with competitive debuts for academy starlets Rafael Camacho and Curtis Jones.

After an intense festive period ended with defeat at Manchester City in the Premier League, the German chooses to shuffle his pack and hand out two first-team debuts to young academy players.

Camacho and Jones are the men to benefit, while 16-year-old Ki-Jana Hoever is named on the bench and could join them in earning his bow.

Elsewhere, fringe players such as Daniel Sturridge and Alberto Moreno are given a chance to impress, though Adam Lallana is absent due to a 'minor issue' - though it is more a case of Klopp not wanting to risk the playmaker rather than him being unavailable to play.

Starting line-ups

Liverpool XI: Mignolet, Camacho, Fabinho, Lovren, Moreno, Milner, Keita, Jones, Shaqiri, Sturridge, Origi.

Subs: Kelleher, Firmino, Mane, Salah, Hoever, Christie-Davies, Alexander-Arnold.

Wolves XI: Ruddy, Bennett, Coady, Boly, Vinagre, Otto, Dendoncker, Neves, Moutinho, Raul, Jota.

Subs: Norris, Doherty, Cavaleiro, Costa, Gibbs-White, Saiss, Traore
