The game against Luton had been a difficult one for Liverpool

With Luis Diaz kicking off, Liverpool face Luton Town on Wednesday as the Premier League continues on matchday 26. Under Klopp's guidance, the team will be aiming for another win to keep them at the top of the table. After their recent win over Brentford, the Reds lead the table with a two-point advantage over Arsenal and a point ahead of Manchester City.

Following this game, Liverpool are set to face Chelsea in the Carabao Cup at the weekend. Meanwhile, Luton showed their determination despite losing 2-1 to Manchester United last Sunday. Against Brentford, Liverpool suffered an injury to Diogo Jota and are awaiting news on the severity of his injury. Also absent through injury are Uruguay's Darwin Nunez, who scored a wonder goal, and Curtis Jones.

Colombian Luis Diaz will be challenged and called upon to lead Liverpool's attacking front, especially given the numerous injury absences the team has faced. He is expected to start next weekend's EFL Cup final clash against Chelsea.

Gakpo's goal equals Origi's goal

The game against Luton had been a difficult one for Liverpool because in the first half they went behind to Ogbene's goal. But in the second half they turned the score around with goals from Virgil Van Dijk and Cody Gakpo, the latter taking advantage of a defensive lapse after a substitution. This image reminded many of Divock Origi's historic goal against Barcelona in 2018.
