Liverpool team news
Iraola is likely to rotate his goalkeepers for the cup competitions, so Giorgi Mamardashvili will replace Alisson between the sticks.
He could also make a number of outfield changes following a sluggish display against Fulham.
Wataru Endo is in line to make his first appearance of the season, but it might be at centre-back as Virgil van Dijk and Jeremy Jacquet look set to sit this one out.
The likes of Jeremie Frimpong, Milos Kerkez, Alexis Mac Allister, Trey Nyoni, Lewis Koumas, Rio Ngumoha and Cody Gakpo may also go in the starting line-up.
Joe Gomez hasn’t featured since sustaining a muscle injury in pre-season, but the defender has been training with the first team and will be in the squad against Tottenham.
Hugo Ekitike, Conor Bradley, Federico Chiesa and Giovanni Leoni all remain sidelined.
Tottenham team news
Roberto De Zerbi has suggested that he will make wholesale changes to his team for this Carabao Cup tie.
Martin Dubravka is expected to make his Tottenham debut, while fellow summer signing Tosin Adarabioyo should start after making a late substitute appearance against Everton.
Marcos Senesi, Lucas Bergvall, Conor Gallagher, James Maddison, Mohammed Kudus and Mathys Tel could also play from the start.
Pedro Porro is out with a small muscle injury, but Destiny Udogie is set to return, so former Liverpool defender Andy Robertson may have to settle for a place on the bench on his return to Anfield.
