Liverpool

Liverpool’s injury crisis has improved in recent weeks with the likes of Virgil van Dijk, Diogo Jota and Roberto Firmino returning to the squad. However, there are still a number of players out for this weekend’s tie.

Calvin Ramsay and Luis Diaz remain as long-term absentees, with the latter set to return this month after sitting on the sidelines since Liverpool’s defeat to Arsenal in October. However, this week’s meeting with United comes too soon for the Colombian.

Meanwhile, Thiago is ruled out through injury, while Arthur Melo has so far disappointed in training after returning from the treatment room. However, Joe Gomez and Naby Keita could be available after missing out on matches against Wolves and Crystal Palace.

Man United

Donny van de Beek and Christian Eriksen still face a long spell on the sidelines after suffering their respective injuries, while Anthony Martial is also ruled out after a difficult season. The Frenchman has only made nine appearances in the top flight this term after missing around 100 days of action due to a series of injuries.

Meanwhile, there was concern about Luke Shaw after he was absent from United’s win over West Ham on Wednesday, however he is likely to return to the fold for their trip to Merseyside. Jadon Sancho could also be available after he missed the midweek clash due to illness.
