Naby Keita - Potentially suffers setback Keita picked up a new injury in training (strain/undisclosed) and was absent from training Friday according to reports close to the team.

Impact Keita missed training with a setback in his recovery and could be out for longer than expected. It's believed that the issue is related to a hamstring strain he's been dealing with throughout the beginning of the season. In any event, it's not a good sign for the oft-injured midfielder. He'll likely be out until well after the World Cup at this juncture.

Impact Henderson missed the midweek contest as more of a precaution, though he's been losing playing time over the last month. He's started two of the last six matches and his consistent starting role seems to be gone, especially with a healthy Harvey Elliott and Curtis Jones in the squad.

James Milner - Out against Tottenham Milner will miss Sunday's trip to Tottenham because of a concussion, according to manager Jurgen Klopp.

Impact Milner was subbed off early midweek because of a possible concussion and it's been confirmed that's what he suffered, so he'll have to go through protocol. Milner has received a few spot starts over the season and has remained fairly healthy, so if he can get back to training next week, he could again be in the starting XI for Cup play.

Alisson - Clean sheet to end group stage Alisson made two saves in Tuesday's 2-0 win against Napoli.

Impact Alisson didn't have much to do in the group stage finale of the Champions League, though he stopped two shots to keep his third Champions League clean sheet. Liverpool's form has been mixed though 15 points from the six Champions League games is nothing to scoff at, neither are the three clean sheets Alisson managed. Alisson has four clean sheets in his last six matches in all competitions.

Curtis Jones - Starts on wing Jones had three shots (zero on goal) and one chance created in Tuesday's 2-0 victory over Napoli.

Impact Jones got the start on the left wing and create a chance in what was an interesting showing from the midfielder. Jones has been eased into a bigger workload since returning from a calf injury that cost him his entire pre-season. While a role on the wing isn't likely to stay for Jones he could see more playing time as Liverpool struggle to patch together a functional midfield, and experiment heavily with formation.

Kostas Tsimikas - Excellent volume during win Tsimikas had 13 crosses (three accurate) and four corners in Tuesday's 2-0 win versus Napoli.

Impact Tsimikas led the way with 13 crosses as he went the full 90 in a rare start while Andrew Robertson is fit. The left-back has earned more playing time with his brilliant form in all competitions and could see more use as a rotational option after the World Cup break. In the Premier League he remains behind Robertson in the pecking order, though Tsimikas is an elite option when starting.

Darwin Nunez - Nets off bench Nunez scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal) in Tuesday's 2-0 victory over Napoli.

Impact Nunez came off the bench for the final 17 minutes of the Champions League group stage finale and scored the goal to put the game beyond reach. The much maligned striker has found some form of late with two goals in his last two Champions League appearances. Nunez will hope to carry this form into the World Cup, and continue to build confidence in his new team domestically.

Mohamed Salah - Scoring streak continues Salah scored one goal to go with three shots (two on goal), two crosses (zero accurate), and three chances created in Tuesday's 2-0 victory over Napoli.

Impact Salah scored his third goal in his past three matches in all competitions to move to seven goals in six Champions League matches. One of the premier talents Salah remains a top option in all fantasy formats in the matches before the World Cup break. Salah has 15 goal contributions in 18 appearances in all competitions, and four in his last three matches.

James Milner - Comes off in Champions League Milner was forced off holding his thigh during Tuesday's Champions League clash with Napoli.

Impact Milner was replaced by Harvey Elliot and went straight down the tunnel after coming off. Milner has had issues with muscular issues in recent seasons so it's possible Milner could be sidelined yet again. With the World Cup break around the corner Milner has just two matches to try and return before a two-month period to recover.

Jordan Henderson - Left out against Napoli Henderson (undisclosed) was not included in the match-day squad versus Napoli on Tuesday.

Impact Henderson had been previously dealing with an undisclosed injury that forced him off versus Ajax on Oct. 26. The midfielder did make a substitute appearance versus Leeds United on Saturday but it appears will be given the night off Tuesday, no doubt in part due to the fact that Liverpool has already secured a spot in the Knockout Round.

Impact Konate has been left on the bench in two straight matches since returning from a muscular injury and will now hope to play for the first time in three weeks. It's been a tough season for Konate, who's played just twice and missed multiple months due to various injuries. If he can build up any rhythm, there's sure to be opportunities to play in a team that isn't so confident in their efforts each week.
