Liverpool have suffered a double injury blow ahead of the Premier League clash against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge this weekend.
The Merseyside giants had the perfect start to the campaign, but they have now suffered back-to-back losses in all competitions.
The Reds were beaten by a late stoppage time goal by Crystal Palace in the Premier League. They went down 1-0 to Galatasaray in the Champion League last night.
Liverpool will be on the road for the third game running. They face Chelsea at the Bridge on Saturday and will be without a couple of key players.
Goalkeeper Alisson Becker picked up a possible muscle injury, and manager Arne Slot has confirmed that he will be sidelined for the game.
Hugo Ekitike also sustained an injury in the back end of the Galatasaray loss and he will be assessed ahead of the trip to west London this weekend.
If he is sidelined, Alexander Isak should retain his starting spot upfront. Giorgi Mamardashvili looks set to make his debut in goal.
