Liverpool team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Inter Milan

Sports Mole rounds up all of Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Tuesday's Champions League last-16 second leg with Inter Milan.

Liverpool will be aiming to secure a straightforward passage into the Champions League quarter-finals when Inter Milan pay a visit for the second leg of their last-16 tie at Anfield on Tuesday night.

The Reds head into the game with a healthy 2-0 lead from the first leg at San Siro, with Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah on the scoresheet.

Jurgen Klopp's side were forced to work for their warm-up victory in the Premier League at the weekend but ultimately got over the line 1-0 against West Ham United thanks to Sadio Mane's winner.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with the Nerazzurri.
