Napoli vs Liverpool lineups: Confirmed team news, predicted XIs and latest injury updates

Andy Robertson is expected to pass a late fitness test to claim his place in Liverpool's starting XI for Tuesday night's meeting with Napoli.

The Scot missed training on Monday after picking up a knock during the weekend win over Newcastle, but Jurgen Klopp is optimistic that he will be fit in time to run out at Stadio San Paolo.

That gives the German the option of picking what is widely considered his strongest team, with Roberto Firmino returning to replace Divock Origi in a forward line that was reshuffled on Saturday until the Belgian picked up an ankle issue.

Naby Keita and Alisson Becker remain sidelined.

For the visitors, Arkadiusz Milik could miss out through injury but Lorenzo Insigne is set to return after recovering from an injury problem.
