Liverpool lineup vs. Bayer Leverkusen: Predicted XI for Champions League clash

Konate decision, Salah's streak: How Liverpool could line up against Leverkusen

Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at how Liverpool could line up for Tuesday's Champions League clash with Bayer Leverkusen at Anfield.

Liverpool boss Arne Slot has been handed a massive injury boost in time for Tuesday's Champions League clash with Bayer Leverkusen at Anfield.

The Reds lost Ibrahima Konate to an arm injury in Saturday's 2-1 Premier League victory over Brighton & Hove Albion; the Frenchman was in visible distress as he came off using his shirt as a makeshift sling.

However, the Frenchman did not sustain any broken bones and has been passed fit to start Tuesday's game, so Joe Gomez should remain in reserve for the time being.

Liverpool should therefore only be missing their four known absentees this week, as none of Alisson Becker (hamstring), Harvey Elliott (foot), Federico Chiesa (fitness) or Diogo Jota (abdominal) will return this side of the international break.

One alteration could still be in store for the hosts at the back, as a well-rested Andrew Robertson will surely displace Kostas Tsimikas, despite the Greek's man-of-the-match display at the weekend.

Alexis Mac Allister and Ryan Gravenberch should be in no danger of losing their places in midfield, but Curtis Jones is pushing to displace Dominik Szoboszlai, while Luis Diaz for Cody Gakpo is another like-for-like swap.

However, there should be no respite for Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah, the latter of whom could become the first player since Ruud van Nistelrooy in 2003 to score in six straight Champions League home matches for an English club.

Liverpool possible starting lineup:
Kelleher; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Mac Allister, Gravenberch; Salah, Jones, Diaz; Nunez
