Meanwhile, Conor Bradley sustained a muscle injury in the 2-2 Premier League draw at Aston Villa. Liverpool’s manager revealed that the right-back “is out for a few weeks. I cannot tell exactly how many but it is clear that he went off with a muscle injury and that it is going to take a while before he is back”. With Alexander-Arnold firmly the number one right-back, it shouldn’t be a huge loss.
Tyler Morton is out with a shoulder injury.
