Liverpool team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Chelsea

Liverpool injury, suspension list vs. Chelsea

Liverpool began their 2019-20 Premier League campaign in ideal fashion with a comfortable 4-1 victory over Norwich City at Anfield on Friday night, and next they turn their attention to silverware in the UEFA Super Cup.

Having missed out in the Community Shield, the Reds find themselves with a second chance to claim an early-season trophy when they face domestic rivals and Europa League winners Chelsea in Istanbul.

Only Barcelona, AC Milan and Real Madrid have lifted this particular trophy more often than Liverpool, although their last success came in 2005 when they earned their place courtesy of Champions League glory in the same city they play this week.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest injury and suspension news for Jurgen Klopp's side ahead of the match.


Alisson Becker

Status: Out Type of injury: Calf Possible return date: Unknown

Liverpool's win over Norwich came at a significant cost as Alisson picked up a calf injury which will keep him out of this match. The Brazilian is set for a scan to determine the full extent of the problem, but he could be sidelined for up to six weeks.


Nathaniel Clyne

Status: Out Type of injury: Knee Possible return date: Unknown

Clyne is a long-term absentee after picking up a serious knee injury in pre-season which will keep him sidelined for the first half of the campaign at least.


LIVERPOOL'S SUSPENSION LIST

Liverpool have no players suspended for this match.
