Welcome to our live coverage of Jurgen Klopp’s press conference to preview his Liverpool side’s Premier League match at home to Chelsea on Wednesday.
It will be the first time that Klopp has sat in front of the media at the AXA Training Centre since his press conference to talk about his shock departure from Liverpool at the end of the season.
Since then his quadruple-chasing Reds side have beat Norwich City 5-2 at Anfield to book their place in the FA Cup fifth round and keep up their fight for trophies on all fronts very much alive. But it’s back to the business of the Premier League tomorrow night when they entertain Chelsea, in what will be a precursor to the Carabao Cup final between the teams at Wembley next month.
No matter what happens elsewhere in what is a full midweek of league fixtures, Liverpool will remain at least five points clear at the top should they beat Mauricio Pochettino’s men.
Klopp’s lengthy injury list is finally clearing up with Trent Alexander-Arnold, Dominik Szoboszlai and Andy Robertson all returning against Norwich. But the Reds boss is likely to be asked about the fitness of Alexis Mac Allister, Mohamed Salah and Thiago Alcantara.
