Liverpool
Liverpool suffered a major blow in the closing stages of their win against Man City, with Diogo Jota stretchered off during injury-time due to a calf injury. The early indications are that the 25-year-old may face a race against time to be fit for Portugal for next month's World Cup.
With Luis Diaz already out until the New Year with a knee issue, Darwin Nunez could be handed a start from the left flank alongside Roberto Firmino and Salah in attack.
Joel Matip, Arthur Melo, Naby Keita and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain remain sidelined, but Klopp will hope to have Ibrahima Konate available once again after the France defender failed a late fitness test in the build-up to the weekend's action.
Liverpool possible starting lineup:
Alisson; Gomez, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Henderson, Fabinho, Thiago; Salah, Firmino, Nunez
West Ham United
West Ham, meanwhile, were without a key defender of their own on Sunday as Kurt Zouma missed out on the trip to Southampton with a cold.
Ben Johnson and Thilo Kehrer deputised for Zouma and Craig Dawson, who suffered a dead leg against Anderlecht in the Europa League on Thursday, but the pair should return to provide much-needed experience at the heart of the visitors' defence.
Maxwel Cornet and Nayef Aguerd are still out with thigh and ankle issues respectively, while Michail Antonio may be considered in place of Scamacca in attack given his pace and power in transition.
West Ham United possible starting lineup:
Fabianski; Kehrer, Dawson, Zouma, Cresswell; Soucek, Rice; Bowen, Paqueta, Emerson; Antonio
Prediction: Liverpool 2-1 West Ham United
