Five-time European champions Liverpool have been boosted with the news that midfielder Naby Keita has fully recovered from his injury woes and is in line to return to the Reds squad for the crucial Champions League meeting with Red Star Belgrade FC of Serbia.
The Reds need to secure an away win over their Group C opponents in the quest to boost their Champions League qualification hopes.
The bid for victory has been strengthened after Guinean international midfielder Naby Keita returned to full training on Sunday after recovering from a hamstring problem.
Keita has been through the worse with injuries in the last few weeks.

The former RB Leipzig star had earlier suffered a concussion in the Champions League Matchday 2 fixture with Italian Serie A giants Napoli before suffering the hamstring problem while he was on international duty.
He has recovered fully from the injury and was part of the 21-man Liverpool squad to Serbia ahead of the game.
Fellow midfielder and club skipper Jordan Henderson didn’t travel with the team as he’s still recovering from the hamstring injury that has forced him to miss the better part of the last one month.
Henderson will miss the game alongside compatriot and right-back Nathaniel Clyne who has been ruled out with illness.
