Naby Keita to miss Liverpool's Champions League game at Bayern Munich

Naby Keita will miss Liverpool's Champions League last-16 second leg against Bayern Munich on Wednesday due to a minor injury.

The midfielder was absent from Liverpool training on Tuesday and did not travel with the 21-man squad which flew out to Germany.

Trent Alexander-Arnold and James Milner took part in training at Melwood.

Full-back Alexander-Arnold was taken off towards the end of Sunday's 4-2 Premier League win over Burnley as a precaution and midfielder Milner, who has been hampered by a muscle problem, sat that game out.

Another player not seen to be taking part was Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, whose comeback appearance in a Premier League 2 match on Friday ended prematurely.

The midfielder, who has been sidelined by a knee injury sustained last April, was scheduled to play 45 minutes in the game but came off just before half-time with a minor hamstring issue.
