Jordan Henderson is expected to feature in Liverpool’s UEFA Champions League return leg at Anfield on Wednesday night.

The Liverpool captain sustained a hamstring injury in the first leg at the Wanda Metrpolitano and has not been in action for the Reds against West Ham United, Watford, Chelsea and Bournemouth; four games, which the Reds won and lost two.

However, he is closing in on a return after joining his teammates in training.

“Hendo is ready but what we do with that, I don’t know… or maybe I know and I don’t say!” Klopp said at the pre match conference.

Liverpool will continue to be without Alisson Becker and for the encounter with Atletico, with the goalkeeper likely to miss Monday’s Merseyside derby with Everton.

The Reds must overturn a 1-0 deficit against Diego Simeone’s side to be able to advance into the quarterfinal stage of the competition.
