The Reds’ senior squad has flown out to Qatar for the Club World Cup tournament with boss Jurgen Klopp.

The CWC semi-final – against Monterray – takes place less than 24 hours after the scheduled Carabao Cup clash meaning Liverpool will field a team of youngsters in the domestic competition.

Under 23s boss Neil Critchley will manage the side.

Villa will see this as a huge opportunity to progress and are likely to field a full-strength XI in a bid to reach the final four.

Who will win? RadioTimes.com says…

Ordinarily, the Reds’ insatiable hunger for trophies under Klopp would be near certainties to blaze through this one.

However, with most of their side half way around the world, Villa must be considered favourites.

The young Reds will be more fired up for this one than any other game in their fledgling careers, but if Villa avoid complacency, they should have enough to see off their inexperienced opponents.

You can’t win anything with kids, right?
