Jurgen Klopp issues Andy Robertson, Darwin Nunez update before Brighton clash
The Merseyside giants return from the international break with a couple of mistakes to rectify from their last two domestic affairs, the most recent of which saw their FA Cup dreams extinguished in a 4-3 quarter-final loss to Manchester United.
By virtue of coming out on the wrong end of that seven-goal scoreline, Klopp will not be bidding farewell to the Kop with a quartet of honours, and the Reds are also playing catch-up in the Premier League title race.
Having only gleaned a point from their 1-1 draw with Manchester City in their last top-flight outing, Liverpool are second in the standings, one better off than the champions but behind Arsenal courtesy of an inferior goal difference.
However, at least one of Arsenal or Man City will drop points in their Easter Sunday Etihad blockbuster, prior to which Liverpool will jump to the summit if they draw with or beat Roberto De Zerbi's side in the 2pm slot.
Robertson «not as bad», Nunez availableThe Reds were dealt a familiar blow over the international break, though, as Scotland left-back Andrew Robertson came off injured while representing his country, as he did during October with a shoulder injury.
This time around, the defender damaged his ankle during a friendly defeat to Northern Ireland, but following reports that he had avoided a serious injury, Klopp has confirmed the good news.
There are no guarantees that Robertson will be able to face the Seagulls, though, with Klopp saying: «Robbo, we take it a little bit day by day so we will see. He will not train today but it's not as bad. So that's fine.»
