Liverpool vs Atalanta: Match preview
Liverpool are in strong command of Group D following their 5-0 win over Atalanta in Bergamo last month.
The Reds now have nine points from their first three games and are five clear of both Ajax and Atalanta.
However, a recent pile-up of major injuries leaves Jurgen Klopp with little room to rotate on Wednesday.
Klopp had a very inexperienced bench to select from against Leicester with Divock Origi and Adrian the most senior players.
Liverpool will be without eight senior players on Wednesday because of injuries.

Atalanta hammered by Liverpool
Atalanta’s momentum in Europe was halted by Liverpool who humbled them 5-0 at home.
The defeat leaves the second-place spot in Group D wide open with the Italians level on points with Ajax.
Matchday 6’s clash between the two clubs is likely to play a big part in who advances in the competition.
Gian Piero Gasperini’s side are currently eighth in Serie A following their underwhelming draw on the weekend with Spezia.
