But due to their Carabao Cup final involvement that weekend, Jurgen Klopp‘s side will instead have to fit in an extra mid-week game.
Liverpool are set for a hectic schedule during the second half of the season, as they continue to fight on four fronts.
The Reds travel to Arsenal tomorrow looking to go eight points clear at the top of the Premier League table.
They will then host Burnley on February 10 before facing Brentford in West London a week later.
Their clash with Luton will now slot in on February 21, kicking off at 7:30pm.
Four days later Klopp will lead his team out at Wembley, possibly for the final time, as they face Chelsea in the Carabao Cup final.
Another mid-week assignment will follow on February 28, with Liverpool to host the winner of the replay between Watford and Southampton in the fifth round of the FA Cup.
Just three days later they will then travel to Nottingham Forest in the Premier League.
