Neither Alisson Becker or Diogo Jota are fit for Liverpool as Fulham today visit Fulham.
The pair missed Thursday’s 4-0 win over LASK due to injury and are not expected back in action for a number of weeks.
As a result, back-up goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher keeps his place between the sticks but Klopp has more options up front.

Cody Gakpo started alongside Mohamed Salah and Luis Diaz on Thursday but Darwin Nunez comes in for the Dutchman even despite his brace.
“Darwin is in a top moment and that didn’t change, super-important for us,” said the Reds boss.
“That he didn’t start [on Thursday] has nothing to do with anything else. Now Cody scored twice, fantastic.
“Does that mean he has to play the next five games in a row? Other players score as well. It is not about that and Cody doesn’t expect [that] now because of that.
“They have to score, that’s the job, that’s what they want, but it is not that I have sleepless nights now and don’t know who to start. It’s not that much a choice, to be honest.”
Liverpool remain without Thiago Alcantara and Stefan Bajcetic long-term, while Andy Robertson is still recovering from shoulder surgery.
Salah starts as he looks to reach the 200-goal mark for Liverpool, having bagged his 199th on Thursday.
