Liverpool XI vs Bologna: Confirmed team news, predicted lineup and injury latest for Champions League | OneFootball

Robertson and Nunez fitness doubts for the Reds

Liverpool are sweating on the fitness of two players ahead of their Champions League clash with Bologna.

The Reds beat Wolves 2-1 on Saturday thanks to goals from Ibrahima Konate and Mohamed Salah.

“I don't expect this to be a big problem, although you never know, but I think he just got a knock," Slot said.

"End phase of the game, maybe he was a bit tired as well because the guy who came in - Forbs, I knew him, of course, from the Dutch competition - he made it a real fight for him.

"He got a bit of a knock but I'm expecting him to be in training on Monday again, but let's wait [and see]."

Darwin Nunez missed the Wolves game through illness, but could return to the squad for the visit of Bologna.

Harvey Elliot remains a long-term injury absentee, with the midfielder expected to be out until the end of October.

Liverpool overcame a scare in their opening Champions League game to win 3-1 at AC Milan.

Liverpool predicted XI: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Tsimikas; Szoboszlai, Mac Allister, Gravenberch; Diaz, Jota, Salah.

Doubts: Robertson, Nunez

Injured: Elliot
