Liverpool injury news on Diogo Jota, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Alisson Becker, Stefan Bajcetic, Thiago Alcantara, Joel Matip and Ben Doak.
Liverpool remains in the race to compete for the English Premier League title with 7 matches remaining.
The Reds lost points after their 2-2 draw with Manchester United at Old Trafford, but they are still equal on points with Arsenal and one point behind Manchester City. Jurgen Klopp’s side still have ambitions to win the Europa League and will face Atalanta in the first leg of their quarter-final at Anfield on Thursday.
They will then host Crystal Palace on Sunday. As they hunt for two titles, Klopp wants all his players currently on the treatment table to be able to return to action. Ahead of both games this week, here’s a current look at the injury list and whether any member of the squad could return to action.
Trent Alexander-Arnold – knee
Liverpool’s vice-captain has not played since he was forced off in the 3-1 win over Burnley two months ago. However, Klopp revealed last week that Alexander-Arnold could return to team training this week. However, it is unlikely that he will take any risks against Atalanta as he will have to recover his fitness. Possible return match: Crystal Palace (H), Sunday April 14.
Diogo Jota – knee
The Portugal international is in a similar situation to Alexander-Arnold when it comes to recovery. Gotta has not played since his 4-1 victory over Brentord on February 17.
The possibilities of the possibility: Crystal Palace (H), Sunday April 14.
Alisson Becker – Liverpool’s first choice goalkeeper has a hamstring problem, has not played for two months. He missed Burnley’s win through illness before missing out on Brentford when he picked up a problem just before the game. Alisson arrived at Old Trafford but was not selected in the match squad, although he can return to training this week.
Possible return match: Crystal Palace (home), Sunday, April 14.
