Liverpool have major injury concerns ahead of Arsenal’s visit on Monday night with Thiago Alcantara and Alisson Becker doubts for the game.

Liverpool duo Alisson and Thiago are facing a late fitness test to be fit in time to face Arsenal on Monday night.

The reigning champions welcome the Gunners to Anfield in a clash that could tell a lot about both side’s ambitions.

Thiago and Alisson sat out training at Melwood earlier this week and they will go through last-minute fitness tests before the game.

Their injuries are currently unknown but backup goalkeeper Adrian is reportedly ready to step in should Alisson be ruled out, as reported by Goal.

Meanwhile, Thiago made his debut off the bench against Chelsea last weekend after completing a £20 million move from Bayern Munich.

Reds boss Jurgen Klopp is currently facing a selection dilemma across the pitch, thanks to a number of injuries.

Captain Jordan Henderson is set to be ruled out while Joel Matip also won’t feature.

Injury to Thiago will come as a blow after his impressive showing last weekend.

Regardless of any absentees whatsoever, the Gunners face a herculean task ahead of them. Liverpool are unbeaten in 40 games at Anfield and will still go in as favorites for the game.
