Liverpool forward Diogo Jota will miss the English Premier League (EPL) visit of Norwich this weekend with an ankle problem.

That is likely to mean a recall for Roberto Firmino, a goalscorer at the San Siro in the midweek 2021/2022 UEFA Champions League game.

Centre-back Joel Matip, rested for the midweek tie, could return at the expense of Ibrahima Konate.

There may be other changes with three matches in eight days, which includes the League Cup final.

Norwich will be without Republic of Ireland striker Adam Idah, who is expected to miss the rest of the season following knee surgery.

Midfielder Mathias Normann (pelvis) and defender Ozan Kabak (illness) both stepped up their fitness work in a training game at Nottingham Forest on Tuesday, and should be in contention.

Goalkeeper Tim Krul (shoulder) continues his own recovery, along with midfielders Lukas Rupp (hamstring) and Jacob Sorensen (knee), while centre-half Andrew Omobamidele is managing a troublesome back issue.(dpa/NAN)
