Team news
Hoffenheim have no injury worries ahead of the second leg clash. The only roadblock standing in between the Bundesliga club and a spot in the Champions League is the 2-1 home loss to Liverpool.
Overturning the result will be difficult for the German club. The Reds have never lost to a club from Germany, but the away side will give it everything until the final whistle.
Klopp, on the other hand, has a few worries. Firstly, a few key players will miss this tie due to injury. Coutinho (back) is yet to return to the squad, as rumors continue to link him with Barcelona.
Adam Lallana (thigh) and Nathaniel Clyne (hamstring) are another two absentees. The latter could have been pivotal given Liverpool’s defensive frailties.
The 1-0 win over Crystal Palace was their first clean sheet, with their back four being torn apart in their previous two games – the 1st leg Hoffenheim tie and the 3-3 draw with Watford.
