Liverpool team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Sparta Prague

Sports Mole rounds up Liverpool injury and suspension news ahead of their Europa League last-16 second-leg clash with Sparta Prague on Thursday.
Sports Mole

With one foot already in the Europa League quarter-finals, Liverpool will be looking to finish the job when they welcome Sparta Prague to Anfield for the second leg of their last-16 tie on Thursday night.

Jurgen Klopp's side cruised to 5-1 first-leg triumph over their Czech-based counterparts last week, courtesy of goals from Darwin Nunez (2), Luis Diaz, Dominik Szoboszlai and Alexis Mac Allister.

The latter of whom was also on the scoresheet in Liverpool's 1-1 draw with Premier League title rivals Manchester City on Sunday, a result that leaves them level on points with new leaders Arsenal, who sit at the summit on goal difference.

Liverpool's focus now shifts to the Europa League, and here, Sports Mole rounds up their latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest with Sparta Prague, who were thrashed 4-0 by Viktoria Plzen last weekend.


Ibrahima Konate

Status: Out
Type of injury: Hamstring
Possible return date: March 17 (vs. Manchester United)

Ibrahima Konate missed Sunday's draw with Man City after picked up a hamstring problem in last week's first leg against Sparta Prague. The centre-back is unlikely to be involved in the second leg on Thursday, but he has a "good chance" of making his comeback in the FA Cup versus Manchester United next Sunday, according to Klopp.


Ryan Gravenberch

Status: Out
Type of injury: Ankle
Possible return date: Unknown

Ryan Gravenberch was forced off with an ankle injury in the EFL Cup final just over three weeks ago and it remains to seen when the midfielder could return to first-team action.


Diogo Jota

Status: Out
Type of injury: Knee
Possible return date: Unknown

Diogo Jota sustained a knee ligament injury against Brentford last month and the attacker is not expected to make a return until the middle of April at the earliest.


Trent Alexander-Arnold

Status: Out
Type of injury: Knee
Possible return date: March 31 (vs. Brighton & Hove Albion)

Trent Alexander-Arnold has missed Liverpool's last seven matches with a knee injury and the right-back is targeting a return towards the end of the month after the international break.


Alisson Becker

Status: Out
Type of injury: Hamstring
Possible return date: March 31 (vs. Brighton & Hove Albion)

First-choice goalkeeper Alisson Becker is also hoping to return at the end of this month having missed the last eight matches with a hamstring injury.


Curtis Jones

Status: Out
Type of injury: Shin
Possible return date: March 31 (vs. Brighton & Hove Albion)

Curtis Jones is another who could make his comeback after the international break as he steps up his recovery from a shin injury picked up against Brentford in mid-February.


Thiago Alcantara

Status: Out
Type of injury: Muscle
Possible return date: Unknown

Following a 10-month layoff with a hip injury, Thiago Alcantara sustained a muscle problem during his comeback appearance against Arsenal on February 4, and it remains to be seen whether the midfielder will return before the campaign comes to a close.


Joel Matip

Status: Out
Type of injury: Knee
Possible return date: Unknown

Joel Matip sustained an ACL injury against Fulham in December and the centre-back is expected to miss the rest of the season.


Stefan Bajcetic

Status: Out
Type of injury: Calf
Possible return date: Unknown

Stefan Bajcetic is in the final stages of his recovery from a calf injury and has taken part in light training, but there is no indication when the midfielder might be back in action.


Ben Doak
