Liverpool vs Man City team news

Liverpool are in the midst of an injury crisis, particularly in defence.

Arne Slot said in his pre-match press conference that he hoped Joe Gomez could return on the bench, although he clarified that the defender will not be able to start.

Alexander Isak remains out with a broken leg that he sustained against Tottenham before Christmas.

Jeremie Frimpong is still out so Dominik Szoboszlai is set to continue at right-back.

As for City, Ruben Dias returned to the squad against Newcastle and could make his first start in a month.

Bernardo Silva missed the Newcastle match in midweek with a hamstring issue and is a doubt.

John Stones is back in training but this game is likely to come too soon.
