Liverpool team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Atletico Madrid

Liverpool will aim to make it back-to-back wins over Atletico Madrid in the Champions League during Wednesday's battle in Group B.

The Reds boast a perfect tally of nine points from three games with Atletico, AC Milan and Porto to sit pretty at the top of the rankings in Europe.

However, Jurgen Klopp's men dropped two points in the Premier League at the weekend, with a dogged Brighton & Hove Albion side claiming a 2-2 draw at Anfield.
