  1. Interestingly, Slot revealed a lot about the lineup for West Ham. Also: Alisson is a doubt for Saturday.

    Some key points:

    >* Federico Chiesa is poised to make his full Liverpool debut on Wednesday night as Arne Slot said that defending the Carabao Cup was high on his list of priorities.

    >* Conor Bradley and Jarell Quansah should start against West Ham

    >* Trey Nyoni is not sure of a place in the squad on Wednesday, with Wataru Endo and Curtis Jones in line to start.

    >* Slot stressed that he was taking the competition seriously. “I know the history of this club,” he said. “I know what happened last season and in a special way, with so many youngsters on the pitch in the final. I know how special winning a cup can be.

    >* Kelleher will start, with Alisson again sidelined with the muscle injury that also threatens his participation in Saturday evening’s Premier League game against Wolves
