Liverpool XI vs RB Leipzig: Predicted lineup, confirmed team news, injury latest for Champions League today | OneFootball

Reds unbeaten in Europe thus far

Liverpool will tonight be without Diogo Jota for their Champions League clash with RB Leipzig.

Slot said at his press conference on Tuesday: “He [Jota] got a knock [on Sunday], like we all saw, when he was trying to go to goal, brought down. That was not the biggest problem but I think the other player fell onto him and that hurt him that much that he couldn’t continue to play and he couldn’t come with us for now.

It was a blow for the Reds, who have won both of their European games thus far.

Slot also revealed that Trent Alexander-Arnold was a doubt for the Blues clash before the game, though he did ultimately make it.

Liverpool will certainly be without Alisson Becker and Harvey Elliott, while Conor Bradley and Federico Chiesa have also stayed at home.

Summer signing Chiesa has missed the last four games due to an unspecified injury.
