Liverpool and Tottenham hit by injuries ahead of Anfield clash

Liverpool host Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield on Sunday in the Premier League, looking to recover from consecutive defeats to Galatasaray in the Champions League and Wolves in the league. The Reds currently sit sixth in the table.

Arne Slot gave an injury update on Friday, with goalkeeper Alisson Becker a doubt after missing the midweek loss to Galatasaray with a muscle injury. Slot said he hoped Alisson would return to training but was not certain. Federico Chiesa is expected to be available after illness.

Liverpool are expected to be without Conor Bradley, Wataru Endo and Giovanni Leoni for the remainder of the season, while Alexander Isak continues his recovery from a fractured fibula and ankle injury.

Tottenham have a lengthy injury list. Cristian Romero and Joao Palhinha are in concussion protocols after a collision in the 5-2 defeat to Atletico Madrid. Micky van de Ven is suspended, and doubts remain over Yves Bissouma and Conor Gallagher, who has a fever. Manager Igor Tudor said: "Micky is out. Bissouma has a problem and Gallagher has a fever but we hope he will be ok."

Also sidelined for Spurs are James Maddison, Dejan Kulusevski, Rodrigo Bentancur, Mohammed Kudus, Wilson Odobert, Destiny Udogie, Ben Davies and Lucas Bergvall.
