Liverpool will begin their quest for a seventh European Cup/Champions League title when Napoli welcome them to Italy for Wednesday's opener in Group A.
An injury-hit Reds side have faltered at the start of the new Premier League season and were held to a 0-0 draw by Merseyside rivals Everton in Saturday's derby at Goodison Park.
Jurgen Klopp's side were agonisingly close to going all the way in the continent's premier tournament last term, but Real Madrid had other ideas and won the cup for the 14th time through Vinicius Junior's strike.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with the Partenopei.
