Liverpool are back in Premier League action on Saturday when they face Brentford away from home. The Reds defeated LASK away from home in a chaotic Champions League clash during the week, and, they will now be looking to bounce back in the league after a defeat last weekend.
Brentford are up in fourth place after a superb start despite having plenty of injury issues, and they held Aston Villa away from home last time out. Here we round up all the latest injury news surrounding Liverpool and the Bees ahead of this one.
Kaye Furo - Out
Furo is out until late November at the earliest due to a foot issue.
Joshua DaSilva - Out
DaSilva will remain out with his muscular issue for at least another week.
Mikkel Damsgaard - Doubt
Damsgaard has been training and may well be available here.
Jannik Schuster - Doubt
Schuster missed last week due to an ankle knock but he could be back in contention here.
Nathan Collins - Doubt
Collins has been dealing with a calf issue, but he is back in training and could play here.
Antoni Milambo - Out
Andrews said last week: "He was doing really well, but he’s picked up a little knock. As you see with long-term injuries, when they’re coming back, it’s not always an upward trajectory. It’s not always really simple to take those next obstacles, and he’s been set back a tiny bit on that journey."
Kevin Schade - Doubt
Andrews said after Schade picked up an issue last week: "He probably wasn't right at halt-time, he wanted to give it a go. He's picked up a shoulder injury, so we'll see how he is in the next few days."
Giovanni Leoni - Out
Leoni is hoping to return from his serious knee injury in the not too distant future, but it will be a slow process. Iraola said this week: "It’s taking more time than we wanted. The plan was to train with the team in this past international break [but] probably it’s going to be in the next [one], so we’ve lost one month in the process. He has to be very confident; the rehab process has to be very careful with him, and we want to make sure once he comes to the team, he stays in a good place."
Hugo Ektike - Out
Ekitike will be out with his Achilles issue until December time.
Conor Bradley - Out
Bradley is working his way back from his ACL injury, and while he is stepping up his rehab at this point, he won't be back until late November at the earliest,
Ryan Gravenberch - Out (Suspended)
Gravenberch is suspended following his red card against Manchester City last time out in the Premier League.
Dominik Szoboszlai - Doubt
Iraola said on Thursday: "It's [too] early for us to say - we have training tomorrow. Obviously, they were not ready for [Wednesday] night, so we have to wait and see... I think it is really early, but I will leave the chance open."
Cody Gakpo - Doubt
The same update applies for Gakpo.
Alexander Isak - Doubt
The same update was also issued for Isak, who has a muscular concern.
