Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at how Liverpool could line up for Tuesday's Champions League semi-final second leg with Villarreal.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp will be without Roberto Firmino for the second leg of their Champions League semi-final with Villarreal at La Ceramica on Tuesday night.

The Brazilian's foot injury rendered him unavailable for the weekend's win over Newcastle United and will keep him sidelined as Liverpool aim to build on a 2-0 first-leg advantage this week.

Curtis Jones and Kostas Tsimikas recovered from illness to make the bench against Newcastle, and Divock Origi has also trained again after overcoming the bug.

Joe Gomez and Joel Matip were drafted into the backline for the trip to Eddie Howe's side, but Trent Alexander-Arnold and Ibrahima Konate are sure to return for the second leg.

Naby Keita took his winning goal extremely well at St James' Park, while James Milner produced a man-of-the-match showing, but Fabinho and Thiago Alcantara will be back in the fold this week alongside Jordan Henderson.

Mohamed Salah was also named among the substitutes at the weekend, and the Egypt international will expect to displace Diogo Jota after enjoying a hard-earned rest, with Luis Diaz also holding his place.

Sadio Mane's strike in the first leg was his 14th Champions League knockout goal, and one more here would see him equal the record for goals at this stage of the tournament for an English club - currently held by Frank Lampard.

Liverpool possible starting lineup: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Henderson, Fabinho, Thiago; Salah, Mane, Diaz
