Liverpool prepared for their blockbusting Europa League showdown with Borussia Dortmund by being put through their paces at Melwood on Wednesday afternoon.

In total, 22 players were involved in the training session, including youngsters Sheyi Ojo and Pedro Chirivella.

There were no new notable absentees from those being worked by Reds boss Jurgen Klopp and his backroom staff.

Christian Benteke remains absent with a knee problem while Jordan Henderson has started the recovery from his own knee complaint.

Joe Allen is expected to come in for Henderson while Klopp admits he has a decision to make over whether to start with Divock Origi or Daniel Sturridge up front, or find room for both players.

“There are always difficult decisions to be made,” says the Reds boss. “Every player I could bring into the line-up is in good shape.

“This is more a moment where you cannot make any mistakes as manager.”
