Liverpool's trip to Leicester is one of three all-Premier League EFL Cup ties on Tuesday night.
Jurgen Klopp will be looking for a result which can spring his side into life after a string of disappointing performances in the Premier League.
Defeat to Manchester City and a draw against Burnley highlighted Liverpool's defensive deficiencies and Klopp is expected give fringe players a chance as he shuffles his pack for the visit of Leicester.
Klopp said: "I think the squad is wide enough to play in different competitions and to come as far as possible and that's the plan at the moment."

Plenty of new faces to keep an eye on across London today. Here's the debutantes:
Tottenham: Juan Foyth, Fernando Llorente (first start)
Crystal Palace: Mamadou Sakho (second spell)
West Ham: Sead Haksabanovic
Brentford: Chris Mepham, Theo Archibald
A first start of his second spell at Selhurst Park for this man but there's plenty more intriguing team news from our man at the ground, Giuseppe Muro:
Pape Souare is on the bench for Palace ahead of a first appearance since his car-crash on the M4 last September. Christian Benteke is on the bench which means Bakary Sako is set to start up front after playing 12 minutes in Saturday's defeat to Southampton.
And we already have team news from one of our five featured games, with Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain starting for Liverpool for the first time since his £40million move from Arsenal:
Liverpool XI: Ward, Flanagan, Gomez, Klavan, Robertson, Henderson, Grujic, Wijnaldum, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Coutinho, Solanke
Unfortunately for the Ox it's on the right wing. That wasn't part of the plan...
