Jurgen Klopp is unlikely to have any new players available when Liverpool take on Napoli in their penultimate friendly of pre-season.
Mohamed Salah, Alisson Becker and Roberto Firmino are all due to return from an extended break necessitated by their involvement in summer tournaments in the coming days.
However, they are not expected to resume training until the Reds’ upcoming camp in Evian begins following their Edinburgh clash with Carlo Ancelotti’s side.
Xherdan Shaqiri and Naby Keita are also close to making their comeback after recovering from calf and adductor injuries respectively.
However, they won’t be available for a fixture that comes at an early stage of their pre-season preparations.
Nathaniel Clyne is one guaranteed absentee after the defender was sent home from the club’s tour of the United States after rupturing his anterior cruciate ligament.
Yasser Larouci, too, should miss out as he recuperates from heavy bruising to his femur suffered against Sevilla.
Meanwhile, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is a doubt as he manages a calf complaint highlighted by Klopp earlier this week.
The manager said: “He has been a bit unlucky with a calf problem. It’s not a tear but something he has from time to time when the intensity gets too high.
“He had to get through the first 20 minutes [against Sporting] when he was really involved, then he felt it.”
Predicted lineups
Liverpool XI: Mignolet, Alexander-Arnold, Van Dijk, Gomez, Robertson, Fabinho, Henderson, Wijnaldum, Wilson, Origi, Brewster
Napoli XI: Meret, Hysaj, Manolas, Chiriches, Ghoulam, Gaetano, Zielinski, Callejon, Mertens, Insigne, Milik
