Team news

Sadio Mane and Diogo Jota are expected to be involved but are on the cusp of a one game suspension if they are booked.

Under UEFA rules, players who accumulate three yellow cards during an elite competition will be handed a one-game suspension. Both Jota and Mane have received two bookings so far in the competition.

Should these two receive another yellow card this evening, then they would miss a potential semi-final first leg against Villarreal. James Milner has already picked up three yellow cards in the competition this season, and served his suspension for the away trip to AC Milan in the group stage.
