Liverpool injury update ahead of Arsenal clash in the Premier League

Liverpool take on league leaders Arsenal and Anfield and have some injury concerns.

Jurgen Klopp could be without up to eight Liverpool players when Arsenal visit Anfield in the Premier League on Saturday.

Liverpool welcome the high-flying Gunners to Merseyside as first takes on second in the top-of-the-table Christmas clash.

The Reds were held to a scoreless draw at home to Manchester United last Sunday, but later beat West Ham in midweek, with a convincing 5-1 win at home.

Ahead of the Arsenal match this weekend, we take a look at the Liverpool players who may miss out.

Liverpool injury update

Ryan Gravenberch limped off in the game against Manchester United and missed the match against West Ham, but  the midfielder has since had a scan, which later revealed that was suffering from DOMS and therefore could feature against Mikel Arteta’s side.

Midfielder Alexis Mac Allister could be out until January and will therefore not be available for Jurgen Klopp.

Defender Joel Matip will continue to recover from surgery after suffering an anterior cruciate ligament injury. Matip, 32, is likely to miss the rest of the 2023-24 season.

Andy Robertson will be sidelined until January after dislocating his shoulder on international duty with Scotland.

Diogo Jota has been out with a hamstring injury since the club’s 1-1 draw with Manchester City, however, the 27-year-old is back doing ball work and could therefore make a return to action soon.
