Liverpool are really going for it with their team to face Villarreal

There's a surprise too

Conan Doherty

This is a team that needs to win a match.

Europa League semi-final second leg. Liverpool need to score or they’re out. Simple as that.

And Jurgen Klopp has picked the team to do just that.

Seven changes to the side that went down to Swansea at the weekend, the German isn’t messing around for the visit of Villarreal who have a 1-0 advantage from the first leg.

Lucas drops to the bench to make way for the return of Emre Can who has missed the last five games.

It was thought that the midfielder could be out for much longer after his initial diagnosis but he is back and he is straight in the team.

Christian Benteke, Jordan Ibe, and Joe Allen fill the subs bench too.

It’s 1-0 on aggregate ahead of the return leg in Anfield. The Spaniards come defending the lead.
