LIVERPOOL, Feb.18 (SEE)- Roberto Firmino could miss Liverpool's Champions League final 16 clash against Bayern Munich after missing training on Monday with a virus. Firmino is the fourth Liverpool player to fall ill since the start of the month, following a warm-weather trip to Dubai in January.

Liverpool have since taken advantage of their exit from the FA Cup to travel to Marbella, but it has seen Firmino fall ill on their return. Dejan Lovren also missed training and will have a last-minute fitness test on a hamstring injury.

If Lovren does not make it, then Fabinho is likely to defend alongside Joel Matip with Virgil van Dijk suspended. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain also took part in some of the session as he continues his rehabilitation from a serious knee injury.
