Liverpool are back in action on Wednesday night, when they face Austrian club LASK away from home in the Champions League. The Reds lost 3-0 to Manchester City over the weekend and will be desperate for a lift here, but Linz is a tough place to go.
LASK produced a four-goal comeback at home to Celtic to qualify for the Champions League, and they will be heavily relying on their home games in this competition.
Ahead of Wednesday night, we have rounded up all the latest injury news surrounding both sides.
Ramiz Harakate - Doubt
Harakate is due back from a shoulder issue but he remains a doubt.
Art Smakaj - Doubt
Smakaj is a doubt having dealt with a knee injury over recent weeks.
Samuel Adeniran - Fit
LASK's danger man striker came off the bench over the weekend to return from an injury. He should be fit here, and it's a major boost. He is a very good striker.
Hugo Ekitike - Out
Ekitike is not going to return from his Achilles issue until some time in December.
Conor Bradley - Out
Bradley remains out until late November as he looks to return from a long-term knee issue. Iraola said in his last update: "I think he is not close to training with the team. He’s training alone, but he has started touching the ball. Definitely, I want him as quick as possible ready, but it’s a long-term injury."
Giovanni Leoni - Out
Leoni is closing in on his return from a knee injury. He is expected back in early November.
Cody Gakpo - Doubt
Gakpo is expected to be out until the weekend from his ankle issue. Iraola said last week: "Cody has an ankle injury - he's had some before in his career, and it's a matter of him dealing with the pain because when you twist your ankle, it was a really bad tackle, I think. He is doing things individually, but will not be ready for Sunday." Gakpo is very unlikely to play here but will go down as a doubt until confirmed as absent.
Alexander Isak - Doubt
Isak is also expected to miss out here but he does have an outside chance of playing.
Dominik Szoboszlai - Doubt
Iraola said on Sunday: "Another one coming from the international games. He came with an overload; he felt a tight hamstring. He's tried somehow, kind of pushing through training, but he was not feeling 100 per cent and we will have to wait for Dom, yes."
Andoni Iraola will host his official pre-match press conference live from the press room inside Linz's Raiffeisen Arena at 3:30pm BST.
Per UEFA regulations, the Basque manager will be accompanied by a key member of the first team playing squad to face the traveling Merseyside press pack and local media before taking to the pitch for the team's open training session.
The session will also give Iraola the platform to address his tactical options in midfield given Ryan Gravenberch’s unique availability suspended for domestic duty following his red card against City, but cleared to play in Austria.
Furthermore, journalists will be looking for indications as to whether 19-year-old Trey Nyoni or Spanish winger Victor Munoz will be handed starting berths in the lineup.
