Liverpool will play Cardiff City in the fourth round of the FA Cup at Anfield on Sunday. 

Liverpool are back in action this weekend, hosting Cardiff City in the fourth round of the FA Cup at Anfield. 

The Reds are unbeaten in their last six matches across all competitions, and they will look to extend that run with a victory over the Championship side on Sunday. 

Manager Jurgen Klopp has received a significant boost in recent weeks with the welcome return of several key players, as well as the addition of Luis Diaz to the squad. 

Naby Keita returned from the AFCON after his team was defeated.


Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane have both been ruled out of the Africa Cup of Nations final, which takes place on Sunday. 

Thiago has recovered from a hip injury and could be named to the squad after missing seven weeks, but he faces a late fitness call due to a chest infection. 

Harvey Elliott will almost certainly be named in the squad for the first time since September, which will please Klopp. 

Diaz could play after arriving from Porto late last week, but a decision will be made later. 

"If he had been here yesterday [Thursday] and could have trained a little bit, I would have definitely considered it." Now I'm not sure ,said Klopp, speaking about a possible Diaz debut.

“Let’s have a look. I wouldn’t say no because I would be excited as well. A few minutes in a sold-out Anfield is nice. But let’s see.”


Probable Liverpool squad:

Goalkeepers: Alisson Becker, Caoimhin Kelleher, Adrian, Marcelo Pitaluga


Defenders: Andy Robertson, Conor Bradley, Ibrahima Konate, Joe Gomez, Joel Matip, Kostas Tsimikas, Owen Beck, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Virgil van Dijk.


Midfielders: Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Curtis Jones, Fabinho, James Milner, Jordan Henderson, Tyler Morton, Thiago, Harvey Elliott, Naby Keita


Forwards: Diogo Jota, Kaide Gordon, Roberto Firmino, Takumi Minamino, Luis Diaz, Divock Origi
