Jurgen Klopp facing a selection headache with Jordan Henderson, Joel Matip and Kostas Tsimikas all ruled out injured for Carabao Cup clash against Arsenal while Thiago will also be absent after his positive Covid-19 test

Jurgen Klopp is facing a selection headache for Liverpool's Carabao Cup clash against Arsenal with a number of key players ruled out of the match.

Liverpool assistant boss Pepijn Lijnders confirmed Jordan Henderson, Joel Matip and Kostas Tsimikas will not feature in Thursday night's game after failing to overcome their injuries in time.

Liverpool skipper Henderson has not played any part in the last two games after being withdrawn at half-time during their victory at Chelsea earlier this month.
