A unique team.
This is the only time you’ll ever see this XI play together for Liverpool.
Jurgen Klopp has named an experimental side for Liverpool’s trip to Exeter City in the FA Cup third round.
The Anfield side are currently missing 13 players through injury, and as a result have been forced to give youngsters, fringe players and Christian Benteke, who captains the side, a run-out against the League Two side.
Here’s the teams for tonight’s game:
