Ahead of the game, Jurgen Klopp spoke to the press on Friday.

When speaking to the media, Klopp discussed a number of topics, including team news:

“Tomorrow too soon? [For Naby Keita] Yes! We can’t rush it, a tough injury. Only in parts of training.

Ibou [Konate] will be in full team training [next week]. It’s football pre-season if you like. Ox is 1-2 weeks ahead of Naby. What happens in the summer no-one knows at the moment.

“No injuries or comebacks [from West Ham]. Two tough games in short succession and now another, we need a closer look who can start. We only have today’s session, yesterday was recovery.”

Klopp also spoke out on Steven Gerrard being sacked by Aston Villa: “I am sure he will come back from that. I’ve been 7 years at Liverpool, we’ve not met a lot for different reasons, but we created a close relationship and I’ve always followed him. Had a quick exchange this morning, nothing too deep.

Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool
