If Jurgen Klopp’s side are to pull off an unlikely mission of securing a spot in Europe’s elite club competition next term, they have little margin for error. In their remaining 11 games, they can afford to drop very few points.
Liverpool now travel a Chelsea outfit who are managerless after sacking Graham Potter on Sunday night.
Whether that gives the Reds a helping hand or not remains to be seen.
Here is the latest on the injury front ahead of the trip to Stamford Bridge.
1. Luis Diaz - knee
The winger is back in training and Klopp has confirmed he’s set to be involved in a match-day squad for the first time in six months. Potential return: Leeds (A), Monday 17 April.
2. Alisson Becker - knock
The keeper was forced to miss training earlier this week. Alisson was scheduled for an individual session on Friday, though, and he might have enough time to recover. Potential return: Leeds (A), Monday 17 April.
