Liverpool will be looking to get their Champions League title defence off to a positive start when they travel to Napoli for their Group E opener on Tuesday night.
The Reds won their sixth European Cup by overcoming Tottenham Hotspur in last season's final, and Jurgen Klopp's side certainly look capable of being a force in Europe once again.
The Merseyside giants have made a perfect start to their 2019-20 Premier League campaign - winning all five matches to sit five points clear at the summit.
Klopp's team also beat Chelsea on penalties to win the UEFA Super Cup last month, but they face a tough game against a Napoli side certainly capable of ending the English outfit's winning run.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest injury and suspension news for Liverpool.
