Liverpool injury, suspension list and return dates for Fulham: Diogo Jota, Ibrahima Konate, Alexis Mac Allister

Jota, Konate, Mac Allister updates: Liverpool injury, suspension list vs. Fulham

Liverpool will be bidding to return to winning ways in the Premier League when they host Fulham on Saturday afternoon.

The Reds were held to a 3-3 draw by Newcastle United in England's top flight last time out, and they currently sit top of the Premier League table, four points ahead of second-placed Chelsea with a game in hand, as last weekend's Merseyside derby was postponed due to the bad weather.

Arne Slot's side were victorious in the Champions League on Tuesday night, though, beating Girona 1-0 to make it six wins from their six European matches this season, with the Merseyside giants top of the Champions League table on 18 points.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Fulham, who currently sit 10th in England's top flight, boasting 23 points from their opening 15 matches of the campaign.


Tyler Morton

Status: Minor doubt Type of injury: Knock Possible return date: December 14 (vs. Fulham)

Morton did not make the journey to Girona due to a knock, and he remains a doubt for the trip to Fulham.


Ibrahima Konate

Status: Out Type of injury: Knee Possible return date: December 26 (vs. Leicester City)

Konate remains unavailable for selection due to a knee problem, with the defender unlikely to be back before Christmas, but he is being tipped to make his return for the clash with Leicester City on December 26.


Conor Bradley

Status: Out Type of injury: Hamstring Possible return date: December 26 (vs. Leicester City)

Bradley suffered a hamstring injury in the recent Champions League clash with Real Madrid, but the full-back could be back in the squad before the end of the year.


Kostas Tsimikas

Status: Out Type of injury: Ankle Possible return date: December 26 (vs. Leicester City)

Tsimikas remains on the treatment table due to an ankle problem that he suffered during a training session, and like Konate and Bradley, it is believed that he will be available for the trip to Leicester.


Diogo Jota

Status: Minor doubt Type of injury: Abdominal Possible return date: December 14 (vs. Fulham)

Jota is on the verge of returning from his abdominal problem, with the Portugal international only just missing out against Girona in the Champions League, so a spot in the squad against Fulham is highly likely.


Federico Chiesa

Status: Minor doubt Type of injury: Illness Possible return date: December 14 (vs. Fulham)

Chiesa was not involved in the European clash with Girona due to an illness, but the Italian, who has only played once in the Premier League this season, is expected to be available for selection against Fulham.


LIVERPOOL'S SUSPENSION LIST

Alexis Mac Allister

Return date: December 18 (vs. Southampton)

Mac Allister missed out against Girona due to a European suspension, and he is also banned for the Premier League game with Fulham, having picked up a milestone yellow card against Newcastle last time out.
