Plays through knee knock Henderson went 59 minutes in Sunday's win against Burnley but played through a knock to his knee. The issue is not expected to force him to miss time.

Impact Henderson returned from a back issue for Sunday's match and now he's dealing with a knock to his knee. Fortunately, it's not muscular, so there's a chance he could be in the XI against Inter. The bigger question for him may be playing time, as Liverpool now have a complete roster and full 90s may not be guaranteed for him until he's fully fit.

Impact Henderson is immediately back in the XI Sunday despite missing the midweek match with a minor back issue.

Expected back Sunday Henderson (back) is set to return against Burnley on Sunday after manager Jurgen Klopp told reporters, "Hendo, yes, definitely will be back."

Considering the midfielder has started each of his last nine appearances, in which he garnered one goal on 11 shots (two on target), one assist and 19 crosses (five accurate), the midfielder should be considered a lnear-ock to rejoin the starting XI.

Dealing with back issue Henderson picked up a back issue in Sunday's FA Cup match and has to be assessed ahead of Thursday's game against Leicester, according to manager Jurgen Klopp.

Impact As expected, Henderson is available after missing the last match with an illness that wasn't COVID-19.

Assists off bench Henderson provided one assist during Wednesday's 2-0 win over Porto.

Impact Henderson had probably the easiest assist of the season, as he sent a simple pass to Mohamed Salah, who beat the entirety of the defense on his own. The midfielder is a lackluster fantasy option, but he gets consistent playing time, and is the metronome of this Liverpool team.

Still working on health Henderson played 14 minutes off the bench over the weekend, but manager Jurgen Klopp doesn't think the midfielder is fully fit just yet. "Hendo, we will see. Yesterday, I would say...

Impact There's a decent chance Henderson isn't risked in the starting XI Wednesday given that Liverpool have nothing to play for. It would make more sense to give minutes to someone else who is fully fit. And even if Henderson starts, he probably won't be asked to go a full 90.

Impact There's a slight chance Henderson will start Saturday, but if there's a chance he can re-injure himself, he probably won't. If that happens, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain could again get the call in the midfield with Fabinho and Thiago Alcantara the likely other starters.
