Liverpool without Alexander-Arnold and Thiago against Manchester City

Liverpool defender Trent Alexander-Arnold and midfielder Thiago Alcantara will be absent for the visit of Manchester City.

The England right-back (groin) and the Spain international (calf) will miss the club’s final game before the upcoming international break.

Midfielder James Milner looks set to continue deputising for Alexander-Arnold, although manager Jurgen Klopp could consider Joe Gomez for the position.

City have no fresh injury concerns following their Champions League trip to Paris St Germain in midweek.

Midfielder Ilkay Gundogan and left-back Oleksandr Zinchenko remain on the sidelines with thigh and calf injuries respectively.

Manager Pep Guardiola is hopeful both players will be fit to return after the international break.

Liverpool provisional squad: Alisson, Milner, Gomez, Van Dijk, Robertson, Fabinho, Henderson, Jones, Salah, Firmino, Mane, Kelleher, Konate, Matip, Tsimikas, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Keita, Minamino, Jota, Origi.

Manchester City provisional squad: Ederson, Steffen, Carson, Cancelo, Walker, Stones, Laporte, Dias, Ake, Fernandinho, Rodri, De Bruyne, Silva, Grealish, Sterling, Foden, Mahrez, Torres, Jesus, Palmer, Lavia, Mbete, Wilson-Esbrand.
