Harvey Elliott - Working on fitness Elliott (ankle) continues to work alone on the pitch, according to manager Jurgen Klopp. "Harvey Elliott looks really promising, out on the pitch - didn't train with the team yet b...

Impact This isn't a huge update on Elliott, who has been training alone on the pitch for a couple months now. If all goes well, he'll be ready after the next international break, but even that's not guaranteed despite being a month from this update.

Alisson - Returns to training Alisson (COVID-19) is back in full training and is available as soon as Thursday's Cup match against Arsenal.

Impact Alisson will return to the squad Thursday, though there's a chance he's rested with a look toward Sunday's league match. That said, Alisson doesn't have to run around as much as field players, so despite returning from COVID-19, he should be ready to start against Arsenal, taking over for Caoimhin Kelleher.

Trent Alexander-Arnold - Back in full training Alexander-Arnold is training in full ahead of Thursday's Cup match against Arsenal.

Impact Alexander-Arnold could start Thursday, but there's a chance he's rested and then is ready to go Sunday against Brentford. Following a bout with COVID-19, it's unlikely the team will want him to play 180 minutes in a period of four days.

Andy Robertson - Back in starting XI Robertson started Sunday's FA Cup win against Shrewsbury, returning from a three-match suspension.

Impact Robertson is expected to return to the starting XI in league play, though the number of Cup matches could change things if Jurgen Klopp wants to rest players.

Adrian - Back in squad Adrian (calf) was on the bench for Sunday's FA Cup win against Shrewsbury.

Joel Matip - Returns in FA Cup Matip (COVID-19) was on the bench for Sunday's FA Cup win against Shrewsbury.

Roberto Firmino - Scores in return Firmino (COVID-19) scored in 26 minutes off the bench of Sunday's FA Cup win.

Impact Firmino is back from COVID-19 and all signs point to him being ready to start the team's next league match, Sunday against Brentford. He figures to move into the starting XI given the AFCON absences, something that hasn't happened since October. Firmino has a couple huge performances, but he's otherwise struggled to produce when in the side this season.

Takumi Minamino - Plays in FA Cup win Minamino (muscular) played the entire second half in Sunday's FA Cup win.

Impact Minamino is back from injury and should be an option to start going forward given the other absences in the side. He hasn't seen a ton of the pitch, but he has two Champions League starts and has often been the preferred option when Liverpool go to their bench.
