Liverpool team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Tottenham Hotspur

Liverpool injury, suspension list vs. Tottenham

Liverpool will endeavour to stretch their Premier League winning streak to four matches when they tackle Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield on Sunday lunchtime.

Jurgen Klopp's side survived a couple of scares to record a 2-1 success over West Ham United on Wednesday, as Cody Gakpo and Joel Matip cancelled out Lucas Paqueta's opener.

Having taken maximum points from each of their last three top-flight fixtures, the Reds are refusing to wave the white flag in the Champions League race as they currently sit seventh in the table, one point behind Tottenham Hotspur following the Lilywhites' draw with Manchester United.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the meeting with Ryan Mason's team.


Diogo Jota

Status: Minor doubt Type of injury: Back Possible return date: April 30 (vs. Tottenham)

Diogo Jota was withdrawn just before the hour mark in midweek after taking a blow to the back, but the Portuguese attacker should be fine to tackle Tottenham at the weekend.


Ibrahima Konate

Status: Minor doubt Type of injury: Fitness Possible return date: April 30 (vs. Tottenham)

Klopp revealed before the win over West Ham that Ibrahima Konate was struggling to complete a full week of training, although he was hopeful that he would be fit to tackle West Ham. The Frenchman ultimately did not make the squad, but he is expected to be back in the fold on Sunday.


Roberto Firmino

Status: Out Type of injury: Muscle Possible return date: May 3 (vs. Fulham)

Roberto Firmino was forced back onto the sidelines with a fresh muscular problem earlier this month, and while he is on course to return before the end of the season, he will not be available for Sunday.


Calvin Ramsay

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

Calvin Ramsay's debut season at Liverpool was cut short by a serious knee injury a few months ago, and the right-back will not play again this season as he recovers from surgery.


Stefan Bajcetic

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

As is the case with Ramsay, midfield protege Stefan Bajcetic has also been seen for the last time this term as he recuperates from a season-ending adductor concern.


Naby Keita

Status: Major doubt Type of injury: Muscle Possible return date: April 30 (vs. Tottenham)

There were initially fears that Naby Keita may have played his final game in a Liverpool shirt due to a muscular problem, which he picked up during the March international break. However, Klopp has now revealed that the Guinea international is back in full training, although Sunday's game may still come too soon for the injury-plagued midfielder.


LIVERPOOL'S SUSPENSION LIST

Liverpool have no players suspended for this match.
