"Arne Slot has enough headaches at the moment without injuries adding to his troubles. Liverpool are in wretched form at the moment after losing six of their past seven games in all competitions, with Wednesday night's 3-0 defeat to Crystal Palace in the Carabao Cup just the latest difficult night for the Reds. But Slot's issues could be compounded if his new star striker Alexander Isak is unable to play against Aston Villa in Saturday's 8pm kick-off."
"Ryan trained with us yesterday. The other two didn't yet. The best features, fun and footballing quizzes, straight to your inbox every week. In the end phase of the injury, things can slow down a bit or things can go faster. But Ryan trained with us yesterday and he will train with us today, and then we will make the call whether he is able to start. The other two [Isak and Jones] are 99.9% sure not in the squad on Saturday."
Liverpool have lost six of their past seven matches across all competitions and are currently in poor form. Alexander Isak sustained a groin injury that forced him off at half time against Eintracht Frankfurt and he missed the recent games at Brentford and against Crystal Palace. Arne Slot indicated that Ryan Gravenberch trained and may be assessed for the weekend, while Isak and Curtis Jones are almost certainly unavailable for the Aston Villa fixture. Hugo Ekitike's early performances have given Slot the option to introduce Isak cautiously when fit.
