"We are not silly, we know how good Liverpool are but we are just going to absorb every minute. "As a Liverpool fan, I can't wait until they sing 'You'll Never Walk Alone' and feel the atmosphere. I'll be touching the 'This is Anfield' sign, but obviously I want Accrington to win."

Liverpool host fourth-tier Accrington Stanley at Anfield on Saturday in a dream FA Cup third round tie for the minnows.

Having gone reasonably strong at Tottenham in midweek and with a crucial Premier League trip to second-placed Nottingham Forest to come on Tuesday, Slot will make wholesale changes for the visit of Accrington, who stand 19th in League Two but have won their last two games.

Joe Gomez is Liverpool’s only other known injury concern, with the defender expected to miss a number of weeks after damaging his hamstring in the 5-0 win at West Ham. However there are also doubts over both Szoboszlai and Jarell Quansah for Saturday, with the pair suffering with illness this week.

Liverpool will have to make late checks on two senior players ahead of their FA Cup third round tie against Accrington Stanley. Dominik Szoboszlai missed Wednesday's Carabao Cup semi-final first-leg loss to Tottenham due to illness and that was the reason for Jarell Quansah's early substitution.

Arsenal and Manchester United are set to face off in a mouthwatering FA Cup third-round tie at the Emirates on Sunday. Having gone 13 games unbeaten, Mikel Arteta’s side slumped to their first home defeat of the season against Newcastle in midweek to leave their hopes of reaching the Carabao Cup final hanging by a thread.
