Liverpool are on course to secure a spot in the UEFA Europa League quarterfinals as they host Sparta Prague on March 14.
Jurgen Klopp's side secured a 5-1 Round of 16 first-leg win away in the Czech Republic last week and they should ease through to the next phase at Anfield.
Klopp is expected to rotate his team, due to their first-leg advantage, and the weekend prospect of an FA Cup trip to Manchester United.
