Liverpool winger Sadio Mane returns to the Liverpool matchday squad for the crunch Premier League clash against Chelsea.
Mane only returned to Liverpool on Monday after Senegal were knocked out of the Africa Nations Cup against Cameroon in a quarter-final shootout on Saturday – with the 24-year-old crestfallen after missing the decisive penalty - but is deemed fit enough for a spot on the bench.
Manager Jurgen Klopp is by the news that Adam Lallana is fit enough to play, who has recovered from a slight injury.
Chelsea manager Antonio Conte has no injury concerns, so Diego Costa leads the line, with Willian and Eden Hazard either side of him.
