Liverpool XI vs Tottenham: Confirmed team news, predicted lineup, injury latest for Carabao Cup today | OneFootball

Reds have almost clean bill of health heading into semi-final first leg

Liverpool will tonight have an almost fully fit squad from which to choose for their Carabao Cup semi-final first leg at Tottenham.

Having both available gives Arne Slot options, particularly at right-back. While Trent Alexander-Arnold is undoubtedly the first-choice there, his performance against United was heavily criticised amid transfer interest from Real Madrid.

Bradley is at least an option to come into the side, although the England international is expected to start.

"It will benefit every player,” said Slot on Tuesday about the prospect of Alexander-Arnold playing.

“Every played not on the pitch would love to play tomorrow as well. Almost all of them are fit. That is quite special. I will highlight they show up every three days."

Dominik Szoboszlai missed Sunday's game due to illness and remains a slight doubt. Joe Gomez is the only injured player following the hamstring injury he suffered against West Ham in late December.

Darwin Nunez was booked against United and will miss Liverpool’s next Premier League match, but is available here.
