Squad news: Salah returns but Matip and Trent to miss Genk trip

Salah takes his place among the 19 travelling players who departed John Lennon Airport on Tuesday afternoon for Belgium after missing Sunday’s 1-1 draw at Manchester United.

However, Alexander-Arnold remains on Merseyside due to a virus, as does Matip, who has a sore knee.

Liverpool squad: Alisson, Fabinho, Van Dijk, Wijnaldum, Lovren, Milner, Keita, Firmino, Mane, Salah, Gomez, Adrian, Henderson, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Lallana, Brewster, Robertson, Origi, Kelleher.

After a win and a defeat in Group E so far, Jürgen Klopp’s side face the Belgian title-holders away from home in the first of back-to-back meetings between the clubs.
