Revenge is on the menu for Liverpool at Anfield on Tuesday night as the Reds host Real Madrid in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie.
Jurgen Klopp's men were defeated by Los Blancos in last year's final, and they finished second behind Napoli in Group A to set up a tie with the reigning champions.
The Merseyside giants have rediscovered their form at the right time, though, and they enter the first leg on the back of a 2-0 win over Newcastle United courtesy of strikes from Darwin Nunez and Cody Gakpo.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with Los Blancos, who beat RB Leipzig, Shakhtar Donetsk and Celtic to top spot in Group F.

Status: Major doubt
Type of injury: Shoulder
Possible return date: February 21 (vs. Real Madrid)
Darwin Nunez opened the scoring in Liverpool's win over Newcastle before falling awkwardly on his shoulder in the second half, which led to his withdrawal just before the hour mark. Nunez tried to carry on for a few minutes before being substituted, and while Klopp is hopeful over his availability, he will undergo further assessment ahead of Tuesday's crunch clash.

Luis Diaz is running outside again as he steps up his recovery from a painful knee setback, but it will still be another few weeks before the Colombian attacker can return to first-team action, which should put him in contention for the second leg in Madrid next month.
