Benteke has yet to start back-to-back games for Liverpool under Klopp, and was only introduced into the action against Leicester due to a first-half injury to Divock Origi.

Downton ends on a high note after five years
The Downton finale went head to head with EastEnders, which pulled in 5.7 million viewers for the same 8.45pm slot. It was the first time Downton had ever topped the Christmas ratings and a fitting end to the beloved series.
