"Perhaps the only blemish during Liverpool's 6-0 drubbing of Qarabag in the Champions League was the early injury to Jeremie Frimpong. Their lightning quick right back has picked up yet another hamstring injury and is now set for a spell on the sidelines, alongside Conor Bradley, Giovanni Leoni and Joe Gomez. With deadline day fast approaching for the January transfer window, it seems unlikely that Liverpool will be making any additions."
"Whether this decision has a detrimental effect on the remainder of the season remains to be seen. Liverpool must press on, with a visit from Newcastle in the Premier League up next. How could they lineup? Goalkeeper Alisson Becker After a comfortable night at Anfield against the Azerbaijani outfit, the Brazilian shot stopper will be hoping for more of the same, but Liverpool and Newcastle's recent scorecards make for grim reading."
"Having started on the bench on Wednesday, Kerkez should reclaim his spot on the left flank, but the Hungarian will undoubtedly want to make amends after a dismal performance against his old club, Bournemouth, last Saturday. His deployment with Cody Gakpo ahead of him is not working, due to the players' contrasting playing styles, meaning Slot faces a difficult decision for the Newcastle contest."
Jeremie Frimpong suffered an early hamstring injury and will be sidelined alongside Conor Bradley, Giovanni Leoni and Joe Gomez.

Virgil van Dijk provided three assists in the Champions League and must lead by example. Ibrahima Konate is expected to return after a family bereavement.
