Sports Mole rounds up all of Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their EFL Cup clash with Norwich City on Tuesday.

Liverpool kick off their 2021-22 EFL Cup campaign with a trip to Carrow Road to take on Norwich City in the third round on Tuesday evening.

Jurgen Klopp's side enter this battle on the back of a 3-0 success over Crystal Palace in the Premier League, during which Sadio Mane's 100th goal for the club preceded strikes from Mohamed Salah and Naby Keita.

The Reds certainly have bigger fish to fry as they seek to maintain their strong starts to Premier League and Champions League action, and numerous changes can be expected from Klopp for their midweek clash with the Premier League's basement side.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest.
