Liverpool team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Napoli

Sports Mole rounds up Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Wednesday's Champions League group-stage clash with Napoli.

Liverpool will begin their quest for a seventh European Cup/Champions League title when Napoli welcome them to Italy for Wednesday's opener in Group A.

An injury-hit Reds side have faltered at the start of the new Premier League season and were held to a 0-0 draw by Merseyside rivals Everton in Saturday's derby at Goodison Park.

Jurgen Klopp's side were agonisingly close to going all the way in the continent's premier tournament last term, but Real Madrid had other ideas and won the cup for the 14th time through Vinicius Junior's strike.

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

Caoimhin Kelleher is still struggling with a groin problem and was not ready to face Everton, but the Irish goalkeeper may be back in training this week and could make the journey to Italy.
