Jurgen Klopp coy over team selection for EFL Cup clash

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has suggested that he will not take any risks with the fitness of his players when they face Leeds United in the EFL Cup quarter-finals.

Klopp made changes to his starting lineup when his side faced Derby County and Tottenham Hotspur earlier in the competition, but while acknowledging that he will make alterations, he has hinted that he will not settle on his team until tomorrow.

The 49-year-old told reporters: "The plan is to find a lineup that can win. It is possible we make changes but it is possible we name a strong team.

"I have no idea because we need to talk to the players and see how they feel. We are not in this rhythm [of playing in midweek].

"We cannot take any risks and it is about having the lineup for the right intensity of the game. I don't have to make a decision until tomorrow."

Klopp has revealed that Roberto Firmino is an injury doubt for the game at Anfield.
