Liverpool star Roberto Firmino faces his former club Hoffenheim tonight

Jurgen Klopp's Reds are without Philippe Coutinho due to a back injury and not as a result of his transfer request last week.

The German has named the same side and squad from their 3-3 draw at Watford, with Nathaniel Clyne, Adam Lallana and Daniel Sturridge still out.

New signing Andy Robertson, who missed Saturday's Premier League opener, is in Germany but is again not included in Klopp's ranks.

Hoffenheim kicked off their new season with a 1-0 DFB Cup win over third-tier side Erfurt on Saturday.

Hoffenheim: Nagelsmann, Baumann, Kaderabek, Bicakcic, Rupp, Demirbay, Wagner, Zuber, Hubner, Vogt, Kramaric, Gnabry.

Subs: Kobel, Amiri, Geiger, Nordtveit, Uth, Toljan, Szalai.

Liverpool: Mignolet, Alexander-Arnold, Lovren, Matip, Moreno, Henderson, Can, Wijnaldum, Salah, Mane, Firmino.

Subs: Karius, Klavan, Gomez, Milner, Grujic, Solanke, Origi.
