After 3 consecutive defeats in the English Premier League, Liverpool hopes to change its course, this season, through the Champions League, where Leipzig will face the German, tomorrow, Tuesday, in the Hungarian capital Budapest, for the first leg of the final price.
Liverpool aspires to regain its balance, through this difficult confrontation with Leipzig, which is technically stable, led by coach Julian Nagelsmann.
Injuries among the Reds, including those of Virgil van Dyck, Joe Gomez and Joel Matip, cast a shadow over the team’s career this season.
The German coach Juergen Klopp, the coach of Liverpool, did not find a solution in the face of these injuries, except to rely on some midfield players in defense centers.
Klopp may use his new player, Ozan Kabak, in defense during tomorrow's match, and Nathaniel Phillips may also be involved, allowing Jordan Henderson, the team captain, to return to his original place in midfield.
This will depend a lot on the case of Fabinho, who missed the team in the Leicester City match, on Saturday, due to injury.
This is while doubts are surrounding the participation of the midfielder, James Milner, in the match tomorrow, after his exit with a muscle strain against Leicester, and his Guinean teammate, Naby Keita, was not prepared optimally to return to the team.
It may be a chance for defender Ben Davis, newly signed from Preston, to be part of the Liverpool starting line-up for the first time.
So, these are hard days for Liverpool
