It’s a big game for…

Divock Origi: The young Belgian should get a chance to stake his claim for a spot in the first team against Plymouth. With Sadio Mane heading off to the African Cup of Nations, Origi could enjoy a spell in the team if he can net a few goals against Plymouth.

Best stat…

55: The last time Plymouth and Liverpool were pitted together was back in April 1962, almost 55 years ago.

Remember when…

It’s almost 23 years since Plymouth were victorious against a top-flight club as they defeated West Brom 1-0 at the Hawthorns back in February 1984.

Player to watch…

Graham Carey: The former Celtic midfielder has been the key man for the Pilgrims this season, scoring ten goals and assisting nine in all competitions, playing a pivotal part in their flying start to the season. Any problems the visitors create on Sunday will likely be caused by Carey, so Liverpool will have to keep a watchful eye on the 27-year-old.

14 MINS

Emre Can takes the set piece and it beats the wall, but does not beat Bradley. The Plymouth defender makes a brave block and heads the ball away from the danger zone.

16 MINS

Gorita is dispossessed by Can and the Liverpool man drives towards the Plymouth goal. He makes great distance up the pitch and lays off Woodburn, but the youngsters attempt on goal is stopped by McCormick.

18 MINS

A Liverpool corner goes short and Woodburn whips the ball deep, but it is collected the Plymouth keeper. The visitors are giving Klopp's men so much time on the ball and appear unable to make an impact so far.

21 MINS

Origi puts the ball in the back of the net with a clever finish, but the goal is disallowed for his battling with Miller prior to the strike.

24 MINS

Origi links up well with Woodburn inside of the box but the youngster is surrounded by a sea of Plymouth shirts. He runs out of space and the ball goes off for a goal kick.

This youngster looks like an incredibly promising prospect for the Reds - his confidence on the ball is remarkable for such an inexperienced player at this level.

27 MINS

Liverpool are effortlessly passing the ball around the edge of the Plymouth box with minimal effort. The visitors are failing to hunt down possession, yet they continue to clear the danger so Klopp's men remain unrewarded for their relentless efforts.

28 MINS

Can's attempt on goal is deflected into the path of Stewart, who goes for goal from distance but it goes narrowly wide. 

[8 January 2017 14:05 · Joe Miles]

31 MINS

Liverpool win a free-kick in a wide position for a clumsy challenge on Ejaria. 

Moreno delivers the ball into the danger-zone, but Purrington leaps above the crowd and clears the danger. 

[8 January 2017 14:07 · Joe Miles]

34 MINS

A Liverpool corner goes into the box and once again the set-piece fails to find a red shirt. They have been continuously pummelling deliveries into the area, but are failing to find the final product.
