Real Madrid will be without several key players for their Champions League clash against Liverpool next week. Players such as Dani Carvajal, Eder Militao and David Alaba are all confirmed absences, while there are also doubts over whether Aurelien Tchouameni and Lucas Vazquez will be involved.
It's not just Real Madrid who are struggling with injury problems, Liverpool are also struggling with them ahead of the game at Anfield. Diogo Jota and Federico Chiesa will definitely be missing, while head coach Arne Slot confirmed that there is uncertainty in the cases of Alisson Becker and Trent Alexander-Arnold (via ).
“We treat everyone with caution, especially when it comes to muscle injuries. Alisson has returned to training with the goalkeeping coach, not yet with the team but expected to do so soon. Let's wait and see how fit he is for the game. He's getting better, but he's not ready to play on Sunday.
“(Alexander-Arnold) hasn’t trained with us yet but he’s doing better so we hope he comes back soon.”
It would be a boost for if Liverpool had to be without Alisson and Alexander-Arnold, who are undoubtedly among the best players in the Premier League.
