Liverpool are on course for one of the most memorable seasons in their recent history.

The Reds opened up a 13-point gap on Arsenal at the top of the Premier League table on Wednesday after Liverpool beat Newcastle 2-0 at Anfield.

Arne Slot’s side are edging closer to winning the title and could even lift a trophy sooner should they beat the Magpies in next month’s Carabao Cup final at Wembley.

They now have a rare week off before traveling to Paris Saint-Germain for the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final, a period in which Slot will perhaps recover some more of his players.

If they are going to keep battling across a number of fronts, that feels particularly important.

With that in mind, here’s a look at the latest Liverpool injuries…

“Conor Bradley isn't ok,” said the Liverpool boss.

It is clear that he went off with a muscle injury and it will take a while before he is back.”

Potential return date: Unknown

Joe Gomez

Perhaps the only area in which Liverpool are slightly lacking right now is in central defence.

Jarell Quansah has shown promise but remains some way behind, while Joe Gomez has again suffered with injury – meaning Wataru Endo has often been deployed in defence.

“Joe will take quite some time,” said Slot earlier this month.

He might [need surgery] but that is something we still have to assess.”

Potential return date: Unknown
