Now The Telegraph reports that the 31-year-old could be out for as long as four weeks. Should Thiago not be available, it’ll mean another senior member of Jurgen Klopp’s side is unavailable.
Virgil van Dijk (hamstring) remains unavailable despite returning to training. Ibrahima Konate (hamstring) and Luis Diaz (knee) remain sidelined.
Diogo Jota is in contention to make the bench, having not played since October because of a calf problem.
Roberto Firmino (calf) and Arthur Melo (thigh) will also be assessed to see if they can be involved.
