LIVERPOOL travelled another rollercoaster on Wednesday as they secured a dramatic 3-2 Champions League victory to Atletico Madrid.

- By IAN DOYLE

Andy Robertson and Mohamed Salah scored early on only for Marcos Llorente to net a brace before skipper Virgil van Dijk snatched an injury-time winner for the Reds.

Arne Slot's side now face another major test of their Premier League title defence when they entertain Everton tomorrow lunchtime.

Here we look at the changes Slot could make to his team.

ROBBO ADVANTAGE

A third game inside less than seven days suggests Slot will rotate his squad for the derby. Liverpool made three changes against Atletico and it would be no surprise if as many are made again.

The fullback positions will be the most intriguing call, with Andy Robertson having edged ahead of Milos Kerkez in the left-back pecking order.
