Liverpool duo Emre Can and Alberto Moreno will be walking a disciplinary tightrope in Wednesday night's Champions League clash with Spartak Moscow at Anfield.

The German midfielder and the Spanish left-back will miss the Reds' next European game if they pick up another booking against the Russian champions.

Both Can and Moreno have collected two yellow cards in the group stage so far and a third would trigger a one-match ban. Bookings are only wiped when a club reaches the semi-final stage of a European competition.

A draw would secure Liverpool's passage to the last 16 of the Champions League and if they beat Spartak they will go through as Group E winners.

If the Reds lose they will be dumped into the Europa League unless Sevilla suffer a surprise defeat to Maribor.

Joel Matip (thigh) is set to miss out but Jurgen Klopp should have Ragnar Klavan and Joe Gomez back available.
