Jurgen Klopp's side could still win the quadruple this campaign, having already won the Carabao Cup with a penalty-shootout win over Chelsea. Liverpool also face the Blues in the FA Cup final on May 14 and sit just a point behind Manchester City in the race for the Premier League title.

It has been a phenomenal season for the Merseyside club, who have won 45 of their 58 competitive matches, with Mane and Salah at the heart of their success.

Both players reached the final of the competition and could feature in six more matches before the end of the domestic campaign. Salah has scored 30 goals in 46 appearances for the Reds, while Mane has stuck 21 times in the same number of games.
