Sturridge and Lallana in Liverpool’s 23-man squad to face Sevilla

Adam Lallana, Danny Ings and Danny Ward have all made Liverpool’s 23-man squad to face Sevilla on Tuesday night.

England man Lallana is included as he looks for a first taste of competitive action of the season after picking up a hamstring injury in July.

Striker Danny Ings, who has made only and EFL Cup appearance this term, is also included as he looks for his first start of the season after undergoing knee surgery after being injured in October 2016.

Ward and fringe stars Andy Robertson and Marko Grujic are also on the plane, while Daniel Sturridge will also travel, despite reports claiming the forward has asked Jurgen Klopp to leave Anfield.

Sturridge is unlikely to start against the La Liga side though as the Reds chase a win which will put them through into the knockout stage.

Joel Matip is absent once again with the thigh problem which sidelined him from the 3-0 win over Southampton. It means Klopp will likely pair Dejan Lovren and Ragnar Klavan together at the back for the Champions League trip to Spain.

Joe Gomez, who was a sub against Saints, will also travel and may well replace Trent Alexander-Arnold at right-back while Loris Karius is likely start ahead of Simon Mignolet.
