Liverpool will have several players unavailable when they face Atletico Madrid in the Champions League this week. The La Liga outfit, likewise, will also have some players on the sidelines when they make the trip to Anfield.
Andoni Iraola oversaw his first win as Liverpool boss last week, with the Merseyside outfit securing a 2-0 victory away at Ipswich Town in the Premier League, with Alexander Isak scoring both goals at Portman Road.
Iraola and Liverpool have seen several members of their squad be unavailable in the early weeks of the season, and that will still be the case when they face Atletico in Europe on Wednesday evening.
