Maybe hoping to take Fab off early if winning and wants Hendo finishing the game.

5 subs come in to it; from 60mins you will see players rested for Sunday

[RedReet]

Thiago might need a run of games… no other reason to play him instead of Hendo tonight. Hope to **** he doesn’t get injured…

I'm sure there are plenty of reasons.

Thiago has shown that he isn't that type of player that needs consecutive games to get going, so my guess is Klopp will have a certain plan and tactics for the starting 11 and feels Henderson is better suited coming off the bench. He started both Inter games on bench.

[BobTheCharmer]

Trents a risk too.

I'd have saved loads for Sunday, that the big game. This is 2 legs so we could still turn around a deficit.

Fingers crossed this isn't another of those moments like playing jota last year in a dead rubber, that you have regrets.

Hopefully get some off early to rest up.
