Gomez left yesterday’s open training session early and is not being risked.

The England international started in Monday’s 4-0 loss to Manchester United in Thailand.

Diogo Jota and Alisson Becker are the two other senior players absent.

Jota underwent a scan for a recurrence of a hamstring injury he sustained on international duty for Portugal last month.

Alisson, meanwhile, was not feeling 100% in training earlier this week and is not being risked.

Youngsters Melkamu Frauendorf and Tom Hill are also not involed.
