Klopp said: “Robbo has been training all week, of course he (is) in contention, there’s no doubt about it. Millie won’t be ready – I think that’s about it.
“Everyone else trained and looked good and sharp – we better be because obviously Chelsea are tough too. It’s already a bit like the Champions League, just in the Premier League!”
Chelsea are missing Kurt Zouma and Christian Pulisic for the shock, but the rest of their squad are available to play.
Both sides enter the game with 100% winning records as Chelsea comfortably beat Crystal Palace 3-0 on Matchday 1 of the season at Stamford Bridge before coming out 2-0 winners over Arsenal in the Emirates.
Liverpool sidelined newly promoted Norwich City before beating Burnley to win their opening two games.
The teams will be looking to fight for the title this season and the early season clash could prove to be vital.
Chelsea emerged victorious from Klopp’s side last season at Anfield and will look to do the same.
