Liverpool face a crunch clash with Barcelona in their Champions League semi-final second leg match on Tuesday.
Unfortunately, they must do without injured duo Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino, which will be a huge blow to the Reds.

Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah will be hugely missed
It has made Liverpool’s slim chances of overturning a 3-0 deficit against the Spanish giants even harder.
Anfield boss Jurgen Klopp said: “Two of the world’s best strikers are not available tomorrow night and we have to score four goals.
“It doesn’t make life easier but as long as we have 11 players on the pitch we will try.”
Divock Origi could come in for Firmino after Daniel Sturridge’s recent uninspiring run in the team, while Xherdan Shaqiri is the most natural replacement for Salah.
Shaqiri’s free-kick was headed in by Origi four minutes from time to secure a vital 3-2 over Newcastle to heap the pressure on title rivals Manchester City, who play Leicester on Monday night.
