Liverpool team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Chelsea

Sports Mole rounds up all of Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their Premier League clash with Chelsea on Tuesday.

Liverpool will endeavour to snap a three-game losing run in all tournaments when they tackle Chelsea in Tuesday's Premier League clash at Stamford Bridge.

The Reds were on course to stun Manchester City when Mohamed Salah broke the deadlock on Saturday, but Julian Alvarez, Kevin De Bruyne, Ilkay Gundogan and Jack Grealish responded for the champions in a 4-1 romping.

With Brighton & Hove Albion and Brentford sharing the spoils in a 3-3 draw, Jurgen Klopp's side have slipped out of the European places entirely, currently languishing in eighth but still three places higher than their counterparts in blue.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their trip to Chelsea, who went down 2-0 to Aston Villa at the weekend.

Status: Out
Type of injury: Knee
Possible return date: April 9 (vs. Arsenal)

Luis Diaz is now being put through his paces in first-team training as he enters the final stages of his recovery from knee surgery, but Tuesday's game will come too soon for the Colombian, who also only has a slim chance of coming back for the weekend's clash with Arsenal.


Thiago Alcantara

Status: Out
Type of injury: Hip
Possible return date: April 17 (vs. Leeds United)

Klopp expects Thiago Alcantara to return to full training this week as he battles a hip injury, which has kept him sidelined since the middle of February, but a comeback within the next couple of weeks is still unlikely.

Possible return date: Unknown

Second-choice right-back Calvin Ramsay continues his lengthy rehabilitation from knee surgery, and the Scottish youngster will miss the rest of the season.

As is the case with Ramsay, fellow teenager Stefan Bajcetic picked up a season-ending adductor injury before the international break, bringing a premature end to an impressive breakthrough campaign.


Naby Keita

Type of injury: Muscle
Possible return date: Unknown

The injury-riddled Naby Keita returned from the international break with a fresh muscular issue, and while no timeframe has been placed on his return, Klopp has admitted that there is a chance he may not play again this season.
