Liverpool's Emre Can has "full body bruise" but could be fit for Bournemouth game

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is hopeful that midfielder Emre Can will be fit to face Bournemouth in tonight's game, despite having a "full body bruise" after Saturday's Merseyside derby.

The Germany international suffered back and knee problems during a very physical clash against Everton, which ended in a 3-1 victory for the Reds at Anfield.

Joel Matip also picked up a knock during the game, but Klopp believes that he too could be in the squad for the visit of the Cherries.

"Emre has kind of a full body bruise. Everywhere," the manager told the club's official website. "We left him out [of training] on Monday because he had back pain, knee pain. Nothing serious, thank God. Really, he has knocks everywhere. I hope he will be fit.

"Joel had a little bit of a back problem or two. He saw the doctor before training so we will see. He should be okay."

Liverpool can extend their unbeaten Premier League run to five games if they avoid defeat this evening.
