Posted by Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool’s Thiago Alcantara and Alisson face fitness tests ahead of the club’s Premier League encounter with Arsenal on Monday as neither of the pair trained on Friday and face a race against time to be fit to face the Gunners. Though it is not clear what the issue is with either player currently but actually, they are both in doubt.
Alacantara, who arrived for £20 million from Bayern Munich earlier in September, was expected to make his first start for the club in the encounter after impressing on debut off the bench against Chelsea but both him and Alisson are still in doubt. On the same note, Joel Matip, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Jordan Henderson will all definitely miss the match, meanwhile. There is, however, some positive news on the injury front for manager Jurgen Klopp, who will be able to welcome back versatile defensive presence Joe Gomez after he missed out against the Blues. Ninety minutes of tomorrow’s 24 hours will decide who takes the day when Arsenal travels to Anfield.
