Liverpool's Joel Matip: Receives FIFA clearance

Matip is on the bench for Saturday's match against Liverpool.

Analysis:

Matip has finally been given clearance by FIFA to play after he declined to represent Cameroon at the Africa Cup of Nations, and while his return is a great boost to the side, his fantasy value in the short term if obviously limited as a substitute. Ragnar Klavan and Dejan Lovren will start in central defence.
