Liverpool team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Luton Town

With the Premier League title now theirs to lose, Liverpool aim for a third successive triumph when Luton Town make the trek to Anfield on Wednesday evening.

Jurgen Klopp's men earned their first Premier League success away to Brentford at the third attempt on Saturday lunchtime, as Mohamed Salah, Darwin Nunez, Alexis Mac Allister and Cody Gakpo contributed to a 4-1 romping.

Owing to Manchester City's failure to beat Chelsea later in the day, the destiny of the crown is now in the Reds' hands as they sit top of the table, although Arsenal remain just two points adrift of their Merseyside counterparts.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the visit of Luton, who fell short in a 2-1 loss to Manchester United on Sunday afternoon.

Diogo Jota

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

One of three first-half casualties in the success over Brentford, Diogo Jota was carried off on a stretcher after sustaining a knee injury, which occurred when Bees midfielder Christian Norgaard fell on him. Klopp admitted in his post-match press conference that the Portuguese's problem appeared severe, and there is no chance he will be involved on Wednesday.

Curtis Jones

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

Prior to Jota's withdrawal, Curtis Jones trudged off the field at the Gtech Community Stadium with a blow to the shin, and while his issue is not thought to be as severe, it would be a surprise to see him involved in midweek.

Darwin Nunez

Status: Major doubt Type of injury: Unspecified Possible return date: February 21 (vs. Luton Town)

After breaking the deadlock against Brentford with a delightful chip, Darwin Nunez was withdrawn at the break owing to fatigue, and he will also need a once-over before the Hatters pay a visit to Merseyside.

Alisson Becker

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

Alisson Becker returned to full training last week following an illness, but the Brazilian shot-stopper then suffered a hamstring injury in Liverpool's final pre-Brentford training session, and it is yet to be ascertained how long the Reds will be without their first-choice goalkeeper.

Trent Alexander-Arnold

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

Trent Alexander-Arnold sustained his second knee injury of the year in the win over Burnley two weekends ago, and Klopp has conceded that the right-back will most likely remain sidelined until after the EFL Cup final this weekend.

Thiago Alcantara

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

After spending nearly 10 months in the medical room with a hip injury, Thiago Alcantara quickly re-entered the infirmary with a muscular injury sustained in the loss to Arsenal on February 4, and there is still no timeframe on the luckless Spaniard's return.

Ben Doak

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

Ben Doak had begun to make strides in the first team before injuring his knee while representing the Under-21s, and the Scotland attacker remains on the long-term road to recovery.

Dominik Szoboszlai

Status: Out Type of injury: Hamstring Possible return date: February 25 (vs. Chelsea)

Dominik Szoboszlai has been missing for the whole of February owing to a hamstring injury, and while he will not be available for the visit of Luton, there is an outside chance that he will be passed fit for the EFL Cup final.

Joel Matip

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

Cameroonian defender Joel Matip will not take part in another match for months due to his ACL injury, which could spell the end of his Liverpool career if his contract is not extended beyond the summer.

Stefan Bajcetic

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

Stefan Bajcetic is still on the mend from a calf injury related to his growth, and while a return to team training should not be too far away for the youngster, no comeback date has been pencilled in just yet.
