Against PSG, Diogo Jota started for the second match in a row. Luis Diaz was on the left and Mohamed Salah on the right.<\/p>\n

Liverpool Injuries and Absentees to Consider<\/h3>\n

Liverpool currently have a few injuries.<\/a><\/p>\n

Cody Gakpo was out with a knock vs PSG and it is unclear whether he will be back for this fixture.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

Tyler Morton is out with a shoulder injury.<\/p>\n
