Jurgen Klopp is not expected to get any more additional fitness boosts between now and Sunday, when his Reds travel to Arsenal for a major crunch clash. However, you just never really know when it comes to the LFC team news, right? Thiago Alcantara (hip), Stefan Bajcetic (calf) and Kostas Tsimikas (collarbone) are all supposedly a few days away from being back available again.
Perhaps at least one member of that trio could make the matchday squad here? We’ll see.

Liverpool FC Team News
It’s always hard to say, as Liverpool do such a good job of keeping their injury information covert; at least for the most part. Mo Salah is still at least a week, maybe two, away from being able to feature again, so he won’t be a part of this top of the table clash.
Elsewhere Ben Doak is out until April while Joel Matip is done for the season.
