The head coach also expressed his enthusiasm for the upcoming match, stating that every player is eager to take to the pitch and make amends for the disappointing result against Manchester United.
With almost all of his players fit and ready to go, Slot is confident that Liverpool can produce a strong performance and take a significant step towards the Carabao Cup final.
