However, Arne Slot will be without his No 1 Alisson, forward Diogo Jota and now Kostas Tsimikas.
The Dutchman confirmed the news as he delivered Liverpool’s injury news to reporters on Tuesday.
Kostas Tsimikas Picks Up An Ankle Injury In Training
The Greek international started the season as Andy Roberton’s back-up but has gone on to play a key role with the Scot struggling with his own injury issues this season.
Tsimikas has featured in 11 games this season, which has seen Liverpool concede just eight goals.
But ahead of a crucial double-header in both the Champions League and Premier League, Slot will be without the left-back.
According to The Times, Tsimikas is facing a ‘short spell on the sidelines with an ankle injury’.
It remains to be seen when Tsimikas will return, although he is expected to miss the next couple of weeks of football.
