According to The Guardian...

With the flying ban extended until tomorrow morning at the earliest Liverpool are having to plan for a worst-case scenario by tackling the 2,600-mile round trip overland.

The journey by road would take an estimated 21 hours non-stop but that would be impractical, although the alternative of a two-day trip would mean the squad would have to leave just a few hours after tonight's Premier League match at home to West Ham and get back shortly before an away game at Burnley on Sunday.

A combination of road and rail travel is another potential option.
