Allison missed the 2-0 away win against Sheffield United, following the tragic death of his father last week.

Concerning Jota, Klopp said: “And Diogo had a little stomach problem. He trained yesterday, only for a little bit.
“We got the message this morning that he feels better again, so we will see what we can do with that.
