Liverpool manager Arne Slot is not sure if Cody Gakpo will be available for Sunday's Premier League showdown with Wolverhampton Wanderers at Anfield.
The Reds boss confirmed in his pre-game press conference that the Dutch attacker had picked up a knock in Wednesday's 2-2 draw with Merseyside rivals Everton, and he will need a late fitness test before the meeting with Vitor Pereira's side.
Should Gakpo not make the cut, either Darwin Nunez or ex-Wolves striker Diogo Jota could be promoted to the first XI at the tip of the attack, in turn shifting Luis Diaz out to the left-hand side.
Neither Jota nor Nunez appear to be in Slot's good books right now, but the former may just edge out his South American counterpart to line up in an otherwise unchanged frontline.
Mohamed Salah - now on 100 Premier League goals at Anfield - is a certainty on the right-hand side, while Dominik Szoboszlai hovers in the number 10 role with Curtis Jones serving a suspension.
The Englishman's red-card ban from the derby also guarantees that Ryan Gravenberch and Alexis Mac Allister will form the double pivot, but a fit-again Trent Alexander-Arnold will likely come in for Conor Bradley at right-back, as he did in the 61st minute at Goodison Park.
Andy Robertson should fend off the threat of Kostas Tsimikas once again, though, while Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate protect Alisson Becker as ever.
Liverpool possible starting lineup:
Alisson; Alexander-Arnold; Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Gravenberch, Mac Allister; Salah, Szoboszlai, Diaz; Jota
