Liverpool will definitely be without Joe Gomez who has undergone surgery on his hamstring injury, while Connor Bradley is expected to miss out after picking up an injury on Wednesday at Villa Park.
Liverpool will make a late call on Cody Gakpo’s fitness as the forward hopes to prove his fitness before Sunday’s Premier League clash with Manchester City.
Without Gakpo in midweek, Liverpool dropped more points against Villa, with Arsenal now able to cut the gap at the top to just five points when they face West Ham on Saturday.
Darwin Nunez stole the headlines with his glaring open-goal miss in the second half and Slot insisted that the Uruguayan must work harder to not let big misses affect him.
‘He (Bradley) still has to come in but I would be completely surprised if he is involved in Sunday’s game or Wednesday’s game against Newcastle,’ added Slot.
