Liverpool's injury situation is improving but not in time for the Merseyside derby with Everton
Arne Slot has confirmed that Alisson Becker is closing in on a return from injury for Liverpool but remains sidelined for the Merseyside derby clash with Everton. The Reds goalkeeper has not played since suffering a hamstring injury against Crystal Palace back in October. Liverpool are set to be without seven players for the trip to Goodison Park as Alexis Mac Allister serves a suspension.
It was on 1-0 where Joe Gomez made a mistake, they went through one-v-one and he saved it,” Slot said. “That could have been the 2-0 so he saved us in that moment. “So maybe he saved us a point because if we go 2-0 down, you never know what could happen afterwards, but things would have been even harder for us.
