Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has said that the Reds will make a handful of late fitness calls on their players as they travel to Brighton and Hove Albion in the Premier League tomorrow afternoon.
The Reds have had a good start to proceedings this year in the top flight and are level with Spurs on points at the summit of the standings.
Up next, a trip to the south coast but it remains to be seen who is going to feature for the Reds, with this quotation coming from Neil Jones on Twitter:
Klopp on team news
"Hendo trained yesterday, parts of team training and then an individual session. We have to see with that. If you asked me my line-up now, I couldn't tell you. We have to make late decisions."#LFC

Rush Football’s take
Liverpool will certainly be hoping that Henderson is up to match fitness, with them making a fair bit of noise about him being back in training on social media:

His presence in midfield is obviously well-documented so having him back would be ideal for the Seagulls clash.
The Reds’ skipper is averaging 71.3 passes a game – the highest for any Liverpool midfielder that’s started more than one game this season – whilst his pass accuracy is at 86.7% so that alongside his leadership would be a welcome addition for Klopp this weekend.
