Fabinho - Training with team Fabinho (illness) was pictured in training with Liverpool on Thursday, and will likely be available to return to the squad for Monday's clash against Everton.

Impact Fabinho missed last weekend's loss to Wolves due to an illness, but he seems likely to return by Monday's Everton match. His status will likely become clearer during manager Jurgen Klopp's press conference on Friday.

Virgil Van Dijk - Back in training Van Dijk (hamstring) was pictured in training with Liverpool on Thursday. His status for Monday's clash against Everton will likely be clearer after manager Jurgen Klopp's press co...

Impact Van Dijk has been out since early January with a hamstring injury, and he wasn't exactly playing in the best form leading up to it. Van Dijk is an undoubted starter in central defense when he returns to fitness, which a struggling Liverpool side will hope can come sooner rather than later.

Alisson - Blown away in loss Alisson recorded three saves and allowed three goals in Saturday's 3-0 loss to Wolverhampton.

Impact Alisson faced five shots and stopped three of them, as well as an own goal from Joel Matip. It was yet another tough day at the office for the goalkeeper who has been stuck behind a surprisingly bad Liverpool attack. Alisson and Liverpool have looked awful coming out of the World Cup break, and just can't seem to get anything going on either side of the ball.

Darwin Nunez - Five shots Saturday Darwin Nunez recorded five shots (two on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-0 defeat against Wolverhampton.

Impact Nunez did everything in his power to try and break the deadlock Saturday, but was unable to do so, coming away with five shots and nothing to show for it. The striker creates trouble on the pitch but has struggled for finishing touch in a Liverpool team that has struggled across the board. Nunez and Liverpool will hope to bounce back and close the season out on a strong note.

Cody Gakpo - Creates two chances Gakpo had one shot (zero on goal), four crosses (zero accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 3-0 defeat versus Wolverhampton.

Impact Gakpo was solid on the left wing once more, putting together a strong showing throughout, but held off the scoresheet. The attacker hasn't been bad since joining the Premier League but the Liverpool team he's joined has struggled across the board. Gakpo has plenty of upside if Liverpool bounce back during the second half.

Trent Alexander-Arnold - Solid floor Saturday Alexander-Arnold recorded three shots (zero on goal), 10 crosses (one accurate) and five corners in Saturday's 3-0 defeat against Wolverhampton.

Impact Alexander-Arnold had a good floor yet again, as he always do, but remained held off the scoresheet. The defender is one of the highest floor options in the Premier League, but that's of little solace for a Liverpool side that has offered next to nothing going forward.

Joel Matip - Own goal to open scoring Matip recorded an own goal, one cross (zero accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 3-0 loss versus Wolverhampton.

Impact Matip opened the scoring inside six minutes, unfortunately with an own goal. The center-back has been usually reliable but everything seems to be going wrong with Liverpool. Matip will likely remain in the starting XI despite this own goal.

Luis Diaz - Running on pitch Diaz (knee) is running on the pitch and a few weeks away from a return to training, according to manager Jurgen Klopp.

Impact This is the original timeline that Diaz was on, so it's good to see him slowly getting back to the pitch. He still faces another week out and the hope is that there won't be any setbacks. For now, as long as everything goes well, he'll be available at some point in March.

Diogo Jota - Expected to train fully next week Jota (calf) is expected to be in full training next week, according to manager Jurgen Klopp. "Diogo Jota had a full session with the team this week but then the next day had again...

Impact Jota is getting closer to a return and it seems inevitable that'll be available before the month is over. His return would be a nice boost, as Cody Gakpo probably shouldn't have been thrown into the starting XI immediately. Though once Jota is ready, he may be brought back slowly given his injury history.

Darwin Nunez - Ramping up minutes Nunez has featured off the bench in Liverpool's last two matches, including Saturday's FA Cup contest against Brighton.

Impact Nunez looks to be removed from his injury and should be in play to start as soon as the Feb. 4 contest against Wolverhampton. While there's more competition for minutes after the addition of Cody Gakpo, it seems like Nunez probably has the leg up when fit, though once Diogo Jota, Luis Diaz and Roberto Firmino are back, there will be more competition for minutes.
