The Sweden skipper last played for the Reds in the 2-1 win over Chelsea earlier that month. With Lisandro Martinez and Harry Maguire also fit again, there is real competition for places at the heart of the defence.

The Netherlands full-back is out on the grass, as is Mason Mount, with the midfielder working hard to get back to full fitness, after being sidelined since last appearing against Luton Town on 11 November.
